Thanks, but the problem is that none of these tools recognise the output
of XLIB:WRITE-BITMAP-FILE as a valid XPM.

Like:

,----
| ignotus agony:/opt/tmp/3 [7028]% xpmtoppm --verbose test11.xpm 
| xpmtoppm: missing or invalid format
`----

After I add manually "/* XPM */" as the first line, the error message
becomes:

,----
| ignotus agony:/opt/tmp/3 [7030]% xpmtoppm --verbose test11.xpm
| xpmtoppm: Cannot find data structure declaration.  Expected a line starting with 'static char', but found the line '#define image_width 1024
`----

If I delete lines beginning with "#define", I get:

,----
| ignotus agony:/opt/tmp/3 [7034]% xpmtoppm --verbose test11.xpm
| xpmtoppm: error scanning hints line
`----

:-(
