Description
I think the problem reported in bug #558711 is in o5_roomOps()'s "set palette color". In the GF_SMALL_HEADER case, it will manipulate _shadowPalette, which just won't do anything noticeable here.
I have two experimental patches which both seem to do the trick, albeit in different ways.
greatloom.diff sticks with the current _shadowPalette solution, and changes updatePalette() to take this into consideration if it's running a GF_SMALL_HEADER game. Note that it now says _shadowPalette[b] = a instead of _shadowPalette[a] = b. This is intentional. The animation would be wrong otherwise, and colours that shouldn't be remapped are.
greatloom2.diff adds a "backup" palette which stores a copy of the current palette as it was first loaded, and then uses setPalColor() to modify the current palette.
I think greatloom.diff is probably the better solution, assuming it doesn't break anything else. Since Loom is the only GF_SMALL_HEADER game that I own, and I haven't gotten very far into it yet, I can't test this.

This is what the "great loom" animation will look like

I forgot to mention that the patches were made against an August 4 CVS snapshot.

I've applied the first one, after some testing... it appears to work on a few small_header games without breaking anything.
Excellent work, thanks :)
