I am also having trouble with twm and xloadimage.  It seems that twm refuses
to load the colormap sometimes.  But if I restart twm, the image will be
displayed fine, with the correct colormap!  This problem does not occur
under uwm, gwm, or olwm.  Unfortunately I'm not yet comfortable with my 
Xpertise so I haven't tried delving into the twm code yet.

ENV:	SS1, SunOS 4.0.3c
	X11R4, fix-2, -DXAW_BC
