Well, the hardware supports what it supports. Not much we can do about
that. I thought the color masks were supposed to avoid confusion, i.e.
if it's 30bpp and red is 0x3ff, then it's one, if red is 0x3ff00000
then it's the other.

If you could post your hackpatches, I could take it from there. I
wouldn't be surprised if the EXA callbacks needed a little help to
render to rgb10a2 surfaces (or bgr10a2). There's a lot of hardcoding
in there.

I sent a fix for it a few minutes ago. Works fine now (or at least ...
a lot less obviously wrong than "black screen"). I still think that
there are LUT issues since we always go through a 256-based color LUT.
There are options to make that 1024 or higher though. Perhaps the LUT
gets auto-disabled when you do a 10bpp surface but have the 256-sized
LUT size enabled? Needs some experimentation.
