For testing I have put some smaller sample dpx files on
http://home.mnet-online.de/svwa/pub/images/
These are linear dpx files with 10 bit and 16 bit depth, RGB and 
Grayscale colorspace.

By the way - is the GraphicsMagick 1.2 branch already available via CVS?
I tried this:
 >cvs update -r GraphicsMagick-1_2 ChangeLog
and got:
 >cvs update: warning: cannot open /GraphicsMagick/CVSROOT/val-tags 
read/write: Permission denied
 >cvs [update aborted]: no such tag GraphicsMagick-1_2
