Yes.  If you are talking about X images (as opposed to pixmaps), image
handling is highly implementation-dependent.  You have to be extremely 
careful to do proper conversions.

One would think that the Xlib routines would handle this properly in
communications with the server.  Is this considered a bug?  I would.

(Yes, I know I could look at the FAQ myself, but not everybody knows
that this is a question to be asked.)
