(Whiteboard: [imglib] [linux scaling]) 

[This has to be a dupe but 30 minutes' searching turned up nothing]

Mozilla simply does not display some images.  It requests them, and recieves
them, but they aren't shown.  This is really obvious on
http://postgresql.readysetnet.com/ .  There are supposed to be several images in
a menu below and left of the elephant, but typically, only one or two gets
displayed.  I see this all over the Internet, so it isn't site specific.  Using
tcpdump, I can see that all images are requested, and all the responses come
through.  The images (GIFs in this case) are not corrupt.  Every other browser
shows them.

This could be imagelib, or network, or cache (or even view manager).  I tried
this with and without cache, and with and without a proxy.  These settings had
no effect on the observed behavior.

I tested this with 2001-04-17-09 on Linux.  Seems serious enough to warrant a
fix for 0.9.

scaled images?  if so, please find one of the 80 linux only scaling not drawing
bugs.
When you load the page and hold your mouse still (better _away_ from those
images), just let all images get loaded before you move the mouse over the
graphics, you can see the page properly.

However, when you move your mouse cursor around those links BEFORE the pics get
loaded, you will not get the pics.  Only those ALT texts will be shown.
Yeah, the ones that don't display are all scaled, and the one that does is not.
 I'll dupe against 75768 since that's one where you mention a patch.  I have
gdk_pixbuf, but not XIE.  If I load XIE, will this stuff start working again?

Crass reply to my own question: loading XIE makes the images appear.  I haven't
seen any XIE-related crashes yet.
second crass reply:  scaled images only shown on first head!  bah.
