I'm running 9.0 on geskekelud, a sparc 5, which has 8 bit color. I'm
running fvwm2 (but this bug is the same under sawfish).
zwgc appears to be unable to allocate any of the colors I use in my
zephyrs, other than black, white, and cyan. I thought perhaps the
panel was allocating away most of the colormap, but I've set
skip_panel and it's still the case.
(I am not doing anything that is using a lot of colors, as far as I
know; the background is the default blue, there's a fvwm2 desktop, a
terminal, and emacs. sawfish looks like it's using up more colors, at
least by a little, but the allocation problem is the same.)
