Question 2 answers question 1. Offsite is the color index value in the source image to make transparent. "OFFSITE 0" means that all source pixels with value 0 become transparent in the output image.

To build with 1.3 you should just have to switch
the references in the Makefile to point to the other dist. I don't know if 1.3 is where the GD
lib went from column major to row major. If so there are a few other fixes that have to happen. 

GD is not used at all in processing TRUETYPE fonts
so this will not remedy the character mapping issues with latin chars. May fix that with BITMAP
fonts assuming the GD version include those characters. Haven't had time to test your sample
data yet, will do this week sometime.

1. What is  "OFFSITE 0" in the raster layer definition (see demo.map)?
2. How to specify transparent color for the raster layer?
3. How to "make" mapserver3.2 with gd1.3?
