Imagemagick ( IMHO, the best resizing algorithm.

If you really need additional tools to manipulate 16-bit files, you can always save a 16-bit tiff file from Ufraw which can then be further processed in 16-bits by either Digikam or Cinepaint. I find that all adjustments that benefit significantly from 16-bit color can be made within Ufraw.
