David, I've never tried switching the bit level of the rendering buffers in OpenGL, but this is something you typically set when you initialize your opengl context. I've never heard of anyone changing this on the fly ... especially not every frame. I can't say with certainty that it is impossible to do, but my gutt feeling is that this wouldn't work.
