With XFree86 4.2, this should be sufficient; the underlying rendering code 
can handle arbitrary formats.  Please check the output of 

        $ xdpyinfo -ext RENDER

to make sure the expected pictformat looks like:

  pict format:
        format id:    <server-defined>
        type:         Direct
        depth:        16
        alpha:        12 mask 0xf
        red:           8 mask 0xf
        green:         4 mask 0xf
        blue:          0 mask 0xf
