Whoops. My mistake.
fl_create_from_pixmapdata() expects XPM Pixmap data (see, I said this
lack of clear nomenclature was confusing), not raw pixels.
What you'll need to do is to take the FL_IMAGE data and create an
XImage using XCreateImage(), create an X Pixmap with XCreatePixmap(),
and then use XPutImage() to write the image data to the X Pixmap.
It's been a while since I've dealt with raw Pixmaps -- I generally use
OpenGL or Mesa to deal with my images these days.
