Probably just a one-line bug somewhere.

In windows x=0 + y=0 is the lower left corner.  In X11 it is the upper 
left corner.  Spice has a top_down flag for image data to be able to 
handle both ways.  When someone fails to set/check this flag correctly 
the typical effect is the image being upside down ...
