Thanks Werner ... the -verbose option gives some insight into the issue ...
I am including the output when I run "x01.exe -verbose" below:

=====
I first thought it was due to the weird pathname of the file but
cmap1_default.pal does not seem to raise a similar flag.
I also tried "x01.exe -cmap0 C:\plplot\data\cmap0_alternate.pal" and I get a
similar message except that the first warning is:
Line is #ffffff (contents of the alternate.pal) while the second warning
remains the same. cmap0_black_on_white.pal does change the default color to
black but the warnings remain.
I checked the *.pal files for any unseen symbols (as in ^M ^T etc.) and none
exist.
