Nice catch :-)  We also need a similar fix for slow_imageblit(), so
James can you apply the attached patch also:

Also, I noticed that some drivers load the pseudo_palette with entries 
whose length matches the length of the pixel.  The cfb_* functions 
always assume that each pseudo_palette entry is an "unsigned long", so 
bpp16 will segfault, and so will bpp24/32 for 64-bit machines.
