Further research showed that the problem is caused by xpm-files with
these kind of lines in the color map:
"$ c #C0C0C0",
"% c red",
"& c green",
"* c yellow",

The first line is parsed correctly, but the others not. The function
CreatePixmapIndirect doesn't support symbolic color names (like red),
only RGB-values.

So the change mentioned above isn't a fix, it only prevents a crash.

HTH,
Vincent.
