NCSA XImage questions

I just got the latest version of the NCSA XImage binary off of
ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu.  It was apparently compiled under 3.3.1, so it
should work with my system.

I have two questions for anyone who uses this system:

(1) The animate option always dumps core when I try to use a wildcard
file specification.  Is there some way around this?

(2) The palette option allows me to fiddle with the RGB values of the
X color table, but does not actually change the colors!  Is there some
option that I need to employ on the X server to make the color table
modifiable? 

Thanks for any help....
