(win16) simple CreateBitmapIndirect() fails on Windows?

[Jennifer Lai]

Hi,

As I was writing tests for win16, I encountered the problem that even the
simplest case of CreateBitmapIndirect fails on Windows? However, it succeeds
with desired properties set on Wine.
I used Open Watcom as well as MS Visual C++ Version 1.52 to compile these
win16 tests.
OpenWatcom can be downloaded for free here:

The following commands are used to compile the test using Open Watcom.

wcc -D_X86_ -DSTANDALONE bitmapIndirect.c -i=C:\WATCOM\h\win;C:\WATCOM\h -w4
-e25 -zq -od -d2 -bt=windows
wlink file bitmapIndirect.obj

This seems very mysterious to me. I'd really appreciate for any comments.
