So this issue has been mentioned a few times on this list, and I've  
never really gotten a good test case to show off the problem.  I'm  
heading to XDS next week, and I'd like to show off this bug to other  
X11 developers and maybe work with them to get towards a solution.

Can someone who is having problem with X11 applications needing 8bit  
color please report an easy-to-reproduce test-case of the problem in  
the bug report:

http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/ticket/10

I'd like something that is easy to download and compile and run.  Tell  
me the URL where I get the application and instructions on how to use  
it to trigger the issue.  I don't want something like "Get IDL and  
make an image with it".  I know people have mentioned IDL as a program  
that showcases this bug, so if that's your example, please provide me  
with the details.  What to I run at the bash command line (and  
subsequent idl command lines) to trigger the bug?

Even if I don't get to this next week, it would be nice to have a  
concrete reproducible testcase for me to use.

Thanks,
Jeremy
