While going with GIMP + .h is the easiest solution, something like
what mdsetimage(8) does would probably be better -- you could then
change splashscreen image w/o kernel recompile.

This would be a nice feature in general -- say you need to boot
an FPGA soonish during kernel boot and never use that firmware
image again.

Anyway, vesafb looks cool! :)
