Surely this is a fault of xpaint then? If you load the file from the menu
it works fine, so I assume that *xpaint* has a bug with startup and
bad colourmap configuration.
Is this so? (If true,
                 we need to contact owner,
               else
                 pipe bitbucket
             )
