...either way, I think that one problem with setCSizeByFormat() is  
that it tries to also set type & format (ie. on macppc we want  
"GL_BGRA" instead of "GL_RGBA", yet we want to be lazy and not add an  
#ifdef to all instances of "setCSizeByFormat(GL_RGBA) in GEM...guess  
this means we need a little rewrite for macintel, too), but only  
returns "csize"...

ps:  finally getting thru some deadlines n'stuff, so I'll be a bit  
more active soon ;-)
