Under remote desktop, Windows returns the wrong number of colors from
GetDeviceCaps (hdc, NUMCOLORS). I hit this bug myself, and MSDN
comments seem to indicate that others hit it as well. The workaround
seems harmless: on non-palettized displays, calculating the number of
display colors based on display bitness should produce good results.
