We have many 8bit depth greyscaled images, and want to display them on
8bit and truecolor (>=16bit) display.

We made a Plan 9 pic formatted file, begin with m8, and k8 :-).
The latter works fine on a truecolor display, but only 16 grey shades on
8bit display(pseudocolor).   This doen't change when we changed the
colormap to say /lib/cmap/c7291.56.

The former (m8), instead, works fine on the 8bit dosplay with colormap of
that c7291.56, but shows colors ^_^ on a true color display.  Where we
should check?
