Thanks --- I see the same thing. MrEd's current BMP reader doesn't
believe in 32-bit BMP files (only 1, 4, 8, and 24). I'll work on the
BMP reader.

Meanwhile, you could work around the bug by changing the format of the
file. For example, you might load it into a bitmap% under Windows and
then save it back as a PNG:

 (let ([bm (make-object bitmap% "reload.bmp")])
   (send bm save-file "reload.png" 'png))
