(Monster glyph adjustments v2, of 2008-02-12), with one small exception: I deemed yellow too bright for quokkas (yellow being the DANGER! sign of, among others, killer bees, death yaks, and Sigmund) and chose white instead.
For a complete list of changes see docs/monster_glyphs.txt, which also doubles as options setting for init.txt.
I wasn't sure what default path to choose for the include option, so it'll probably have to be adjusted for it to work. (The message history shows an error message if a file to-be-included can't be read in.)

# The release of Dungeon Crawl 0.4 brought with it an
# overhaul of monster colours and monster glyphs.
#
# The goal of this change was to put monsters into more
# consistent groups (e.g. group jackals with hounds,
# move slugs into a group of their own) and to follow
# a more consistent colour scheme where similar
# monster would have similar colours (e.g. orc priest
# and elf priest are both coloured green now) and the
# higher level (and thus more dangerous) version of
# an early monster would get the brighter colour.
# As an example of the latter, the orc sorceror has
# been recoloured to light magenta because the orc
# wizard (the easier orc mage version) glyph is
# coloured magenta. Also, the colours of some pairings
# including small snake/snake and yaktaur/yaktaur
# have been switched, following the same rule.
# Another important point of the change was to avoid
# the use of dark grey, which can be unreadable on some
# systems, and use light grey, white, or blue or another
# colour in its stead, as appropriate.
#
# We think that as a result of these changes monsters
# are coloured more consistently, and that their
# difficulty level should be easier to grasp for newbies.
# At the same time we realize that this change might be
# hard on experienced players. Of course we hope that
# you will be able to adapt, but in case there are
# changes you really cannot accept, here are the options
# necessary to make the glyphs of all affected monsters
# show up as they did in version 0.3.4.
#
# You'll find a table comparing old and new settings at
# the end of this file.
