[BUG] macmodes.c in 2.3.99-pre3-pre8

[Martin Costabel]

Starting from about a week ago, the 2.3.99 bitkeeper kernels screw up
the colors in Xpmac, making it unusable (8-bit color, valkyriefb
driver). XF_FBDev is working fine.

I tracked this down to what I think is a typo in the big code crossover
from offb.c to macmodes.c. In any case, the following patch fixes the
problem for me:
