Thirty seconds' using-the-source shows that the raster_op library
doesn't support eight-to-one bitblits; just one-to-eight,
and one-to-one and eight-to-eight.

The pmax "qvss"  font is an eight-bit-deep font, and a 3100 mono
framebuffer is eight one-bit pixels per byte.  I'd guess
that blitting the "qvss" font into that framebuffer needs
an eight-to-one blit. (I'm just guessing, of course.)

I guess Ted's definition of "*too* hard" and mine are different :).
