Hi Pierre,
from what I see the wmbp stuff is related to 'Wireless Bitmap' which is not Windows Bitmap as many folks think all the time (me too before I further checked). Although I found a pure PHP solution to read a Windows *.bmp bitmap and return a GD:
http://www.jpexs.com/eng/default/php.html
I'm not happy with this because its terrible slow....; therefore I digged again and looked into bmp2png C source:
http://pmt..sourceforge.net/bmp2png/
since the code is free I think it might be a good candidate (and the only one I found so far) for inclusion into libgd; the BMP2PNG.C file contains a function 'static char *read_bmp( char *fn, FILE *fp, IMAGE *img )' which I think could probably be adapted easily...; the counterpart 'static char *write_bmp( char *fn, FILE *fp, IMAGE *img )' can be found in PNG2BMP.C...
would be very great if you could take a look into that - I'm sure you would make many many users happy with including this feature into libgd, and finally into the php_gd extension !!

greetz, Guenter.
