FVWM: Color Problems

I've previously written about this problem, but I have yet to solve it.
 I cannot get FVWM to properly display XPM pixmaps at their original
color depth (they appear to be at most 8-bit). I've tried running
2.4.13, 2.5.4, and 2.5.5, all on a Sun UltraSPARC Solaris 2.7 system. I
built FVWM with xpm-3.4k and libpng-1.2.5, and after running configure
it's reported that xpm and png support was successfully included.
 Running make and make install seem to go without a problem. My system
certainly supports 24-bit colordepth, as I have no problem viewing these
XPM pixmaps with 'xv', and am able to view all PNGs with GIMP. Am I
overlooking something here? Are not enough colors being allocated for
fvwm, and if so, how can this be changed? I should also mention that I
am not even able to view any PNG icons with fvwm-2.5.x. For instance,
"Style xterm Icon dtterm.png" doesn't give me any icon, despite having
the Imagepath pointing to the location of the png file. Any help to
resolve these issues is greatly appreciated. thanks.
