Angelus sent me this patch for the problems he was having with the
colorkey on the savage driver. I've been pretty busy so I was just now
taking a look at it. I haven't tested it yet, but then again, I
haven't had any problem with Xv on savage in the basic testing I've
done. If it is indeed the correct fix, I'll apply it to the DRI savage
driver.
