Read PGM's with more than 256 range in PIL1.1.7

[Chris Colbert]

According the pil manual it handles PGM files with "'1', 'L', or 'RGB' data"
which leads me to believe 16bit data is not supported.

You CAN write your own decoder for that though:

It would be trivial to write a decoder for the pgm format.
