325
to determine an appropriate line pitch for the virtual resolution
326
requested (#1636, Marc La France).

343
and add [GS]etWindowPixmap entries. Some may not be needed and
344
can be removed later (#1636, Marc La France).
345
1138. Remove cfbScreenInitLong() entries. They are not needed since the
346
RGB ordering and masks can be fixed after calling cfbScreenInit()
347
(#1636, Marc La France).
348
1137. Fix the saving and restoring of PSZ #define in cfb??.h headers,
349
