[Lazarus] Bitmap.Assign loses PixelFormat information on Mac OS X

[Dominique Louis]

Hi Marc,
   I totally understand that when you first create a Bitmap it should 
not have a PixelFormat, so defaulting to pfDevice is fine, but surely in 
the case of an Assign call it should copy the properties over as well. I 
would be surprised if it does not work that way in Delphi.
