That's now done; to request `safe mode', a w/h of -1 is passed to the
init function. If the framebuffer driver is present, I have #defined
GFX_SAFE_ID to be the framebuffer driver, and GFX_SAFE_W/H to be -1. The
only difference from passing a w/h of 0 (which means use current
resolution) is that the color depth isn't changed.

Done.

New patch is here and at SourceForge.
