It looked great, except for XCBImage_Destroy; so I removed the
underscore. Also I updated the test apps for the API change.

Huh, you're right: you and Jeremy still don't have accounts. I guess
it's only been a week since we actually asked for them, but if the fd.o
admins are going to limit root privileges they should at least respond
to account creation requests.

I don't understand. Variables are allowed to be initialized in their
declarations under C89. I just tried compiling with "-ansi -pedantic",
and aside from the "inline" keyword being disallowed there were no
warnings or errors in xcb_image.c. (There were several warnings that we
probably should fix in the test programs, though.)

So I'm not committing this change right now. If you think it's important
let's discuss it.

I notice you also changed GetPixel and PutPixel to take INT16s instead
of ints for the x and y coordinates. I think that's probably a bad idea.
People might want to deal with images larger than 64k pixels wide or
tall. So I'm not committing it yet either, but I'll happily listen to
arguments.

Get some sleep, man. :-)
