Re: Regression: "convert image.png -type Palette image2.png" does not preserve transparency

The file generated by the latest version of imagemagick has a color
type of 6 in the header (truecolor & alpha according to wikipedia).

The old version of ImageMagick generated a file with a color type of 3
(indexed according to wikipedia).

According to Wikipedia it should be possible to create png images with
color type 3 and transparency.
