We do it automagically but we make the decision based on the primary
plane pixel format which is a bit silly considering there are sprites
and whatnot to consider. Maybe we should just always go for deep color
whenever possible? Anyway that's a separate topic.

I did manage to clean up the patches a bit while I had nothing else to
do. I'll give them a quick spin and if they still work I'll toss them
onto the mailing list.
