If you have tried running the "life" demo as it came with the DMD host software
release 2.0, you probably noticed that the display was messed up.  In particular,
some regions would never have anything displayed in them.  It turns out that this
bug is due to an incomplete porting of a Blit version and can be easily fixed.

In $DMD/src/demo/life/mlife.c, function gendisplay(), change Texture to
Texture16 and change texture to texture16, then install an updated DMD binary.
