Hi Matt,

the gdal library currently does not compile on my cygwin setup. That is
all i can say right now and i have no time to check why. 
You options are: Try to fix it yourself (and share with us), beg someone
to fix it for you or wait (no timeframe). Or you convert them first to
24bit, as you propose.
