) It's because xbiff++ appears to have only been tested on a monochrome system.

Right.  Just remember you also have to add a planemask at the
end of XCopyPlane's arg list, which should be '1'.

SSMailbox.c:

       {
          x = (((int)w->core.width) - im->width) / 2;
          y = (((int)w->core.height) - im->height) / 2;
       }

       XSetWindowBackground (dpy, win, back);
       XClearWindow (dpy, win);
   /***    doesn't work on multiplane systems!  */
   /***    XCopyArea (dpy, im->pixmap, win, gc, 0, 0, im->width, im->height, x, y); */
       XCopyPlane (dpy, im->pixmap, win, gc, 0, 0, im->width, im->height, x, y, 1);
