Oops.

I guess even my vaunted proofreader's mind can make a booboo once
in a while.  :)  Actually, what happened was that I confused masking the
bits with & and taking the mod with %.  So the line would have been
correct if I'd written:

             putpixel (loop1, loop2, rand() & 0xff );

or

             putpixel (loop1, loop2, rand() % 0x100 );

Sorry for the mistake.  :P
