    Problem Summary MSF4W.00007 This test may fail on implementations because the number of pixels being freed is incorrect.
    Problem Text
    This test may fail on implementations because the number of
    pixels being freed is incorrect.

    This test fails because the wrong number of pixels are freed,
    XFreeColors() does not return the expected BadAccess error, and
    the test fails.

    The X Consortium and VSW5 test suites have corrected this error
    by adjusting npixels properly.

    pixels = cptr
    npixels = size + 1 <--- VSW5 adds 1

    Our implementation passes if the test is modified to reflect this
    change to later versions of the test suite.

    A TSD is requested.

    Test Description:
    If any of the visual classes DirectColor, PseudoColor or
    GrayScale is supported: When one or more pixels cannot be
    freed, and one or more pixels can be freed, then the pixels
    that are allocated by the client in the colourmap that can
    be freed are freed.

    Test Strategy:
    For each visual class DirectColor, PseudoColor and GrayScale:
    Create a colormap with alloc set to AllocNone.
    Create a new client with XOpenDisplay.
    Allocate a r/o cell for the new client with XAllocColor.
    Allocate the rest of the colormap for the first client with
    XAllocColorCells.
    Free the entire colormap with the second client with XFreeColors.
    Verify that only one cell was freed with XAllocColorCells.
