Hello List,

I may have encountered a bug in gdaldem color-relief. When I use it to apply a 
color map to a GeoTIFF band that has positive and negative and zero values, the 
zero pixels are always translated as having alpha 0, even if the color map file 
explicitly states zero values should be opaque. 

e.g., I'm using a command like this one:

gdaldem color-relief MinT_SFC.EPSG_900913.tif colortables/T_SFC.clr 
pngs/test.png -alpha -b 1 -of PNG

and a segment of the color table file reads as follows:

-10.0   64  64  64
-0.1   127 127 127 255
0       64  64 127 255
0.1     64  64 127 255
9.9    127 127 192

I can provide a sample dataset that produces this problem, but I'm not sure 
what the etiquette on attaching files in this list is.

Can anyone confirm they see the same behavior? I'm using 1.7.1, compiled 
locally. The behavior appears whether my -of is PNG or GTiff, so I don't think 
it's a driver issue.

I know this has nothing to do with generating elevation maps, but it's too 
convenient a way to apply a color map to float data--I had been using mapserver 
just to make colorized PNGs, and gdaldem is so much cleaner.

Thanks!

-Matt
