I see a small improvement in my Mac OS PPC build - two less warnings about bad values in grid settings. But colours and general reliability are not improved - it's still a very unhapppy program on a Big-endian Mac.
There must be deeper assumptions about byte order in the program, possibly inside Cdraw.
