This was indeed Bpp as in Bytes-per-pixel; I reused the variable name 
from pixman-general.c.  Happy to change it to the more explicit 
bytes_per_pixel.

Are you referring to the fact that `get_scanline_float` gets data 
through `get_scanline_32` first?  If so, I have not -- I understand this 
is only an issue with floating point formats, which were added after I 
wrote the patches.
