Method 3:

Delete src/include/color.h and replace its sole use in
src/ps.map/ps.map/cmd/vector.h with a local definition for the only
portion which is actually used:

	typedef	struct {
		unsigned short r, g, b;
	} RGB;

I'm fairly sure that the above struct definition doesn't qualify as an
"original work".
