Ok, my bad!  Sort of... :)

When I applied the SDK 4.0 Update 1 drop 2, since it was "beta" or
pre-release, I wanted to be able to backout if I had to.  So when before I
copied over PalmResPostLinker.dll to my codewarrior\bin\plugins\linker
folder, I created a folder called codewarrior\bin\plugins\linker\old and
copied the older PalmResPostLinker.dll there prior to copying over the new
updated version.

It turns out that CodeWarrior FINDS THE OLDER PalmResPostLinker.dll FILE IN
THE OLD FOLDER FIRST!  Therefore, CodeWarrior was still using the older
.dll, even though it had been moved into another sub-folder.  Bad
CodeWarrior, bad bad!  :)

So I renamed PalmResPostLinker.dll in the old folder to
PalmResPostLinker.old, and re-built the test app.  It now works, and
PackBits ***ARE*** working with 16-bpp images.

Ben: Should CodeWarrior's logic be traversing the plugins\linker folder any
deeper, like it did here when it found the PalmResPostLinker.dll file in the
linker\old folder BEFORE the linker folder?  Just thought I'd include you in
the reply list, so that you are aware of what I did with OLD folders caused
CodeWarrior to use a file I didn't expect it to use.

Anyways, Problem resolved!  Thanks for looking into this problem, and it
does appear the the SDK update solves the problem.

Doug.
