(Depending on how correct I am with the interpretation, there might be
some bugs in fbdev on how it determines the color depth. No one is
complaining yet though, so greater than 1-bit monochrome is probably
rare if not nonexistent.)

There definitely are bugs w.r.t. this, especially in the 2.4 logo code ;-)

Yes, I would agree.  Do you know of any outstanding bugs on color handling
in 2.6 code, especially for hardware with bitdepths < 8? I would like to
fix them.

Unfortunately not. Due to personel reasons, I temporarily don't have much
time left to do real coding.

You can always try vgafb's 16 color mode and check for yourself.
