There is no 'SIZE' keyword in the LAYER object, but there is one in the
CLASS object, so I assume that you meant that if a class had a SIZE
value set then the color would always be black.  

This is odd for sure, but color and size are used in classes all the
time and they usually work, so perhaps the problem would be with your
build of MapServer: first make sure you do not have an old
/usr/local/lib/libmap.am (if you have one then delete it), then rerun
configure and run 'make clean; make' in the mapserver directory and try
again with the new executables.

If this still happens after that then please file a bug in the MapServer
bugzilla with a sample mapfile that reproduces this.  (A ZIP with a tiny
mapfile with associated data that reproduces this would be best)
