Thanks for the catch. It is a bug.

Actually, it is originally (in wingdi.h):

  typedef USHORT COLOR16;

So the correct conversion would be:

  type
    COLOR16 = Word;

Still, the current type is wrong, and so is the size of TTriVertex, 
because of that. 

Could you enter it into QC (http://qc.borland.com)? If not, I will.
