Hi Alban:

I have committed your patch (revision 10192).  My tests of the qtwidgets,
pngqt, epsqt, and svgqt devices looked good for semi-transparent backgrounds
specified with -bg.  Also, C example 16 now gives the correct results.

Thanks very much for this fix.

Note, there has been a minor background regression introduced for extqt by
your changes; if you run ./qt_example, then the first time you try one of
"Curves" or "Histogram" the result is background colour that is the same as
the underlying widget colour (gray). Subsequent tries of Curves or Histogram
give you the correct (default) black background.

Whether or not you can fix that minor issue, could you also implement
command-line parsing for qt_example so we can thoroughly and conveniently
test various colour options (e.g., -bg, -cmap0, and -cmap1)?  That just
means inserting the appropriate call to plparseopts in the correct place,
but when I attempted to do that simple enhancement myself, I kept running up
against C++ issues I didn't understand.

Alan
