An 8-bit index into a table of ggi_color. That's the abstraction that
LibGGI provides via ggiSetPalette() & ggiGetPalette(). Who cares what
the "real" palette is ?

Which modes are those ? I'm not following you (again :-(). If you're
talking about the palemu target which will emulate palettised modes on
non-palettised ones, then that will just store the palette as an array
of ggi_color (whenever I get around to writing it :-).
Cheers,
