Thanks to Max Grabert for the suggestion: adding the following line to
the "Screen" section in xorg.conf works for me:

	DefaultFbBpp	32

I would have expected the X server to be able to find this out for
itself, so I'm not sure if there's still a bug here.  I can't see
anything obviously wrong with stifb, fwiw.

Cheers,
