XftColorAllocValue returns requested color, not closest approximation

The man page of Xft states, "An XftColor object permits text and other items to be rendered in a particular color (or the closest approximation offered by the X visual in use)." However, the code in xftcolor.c seems to return the requested color, not the color found by the X-server. I believe, the file xftcolor.c should be changed, as per the patch below. Unfortunately, at the moment I do not have a, e.g., grayscale screen at hand to test the issue.
