[Image-SIG] suspected bug in PIL 1.1.3 bmp reader

[Jeff Breidenbach]

Hi all,

I have an uncompressed BMP file, that I believe to be valid, that PIL
chokes on. I can call Image.open no problem, but PIL fails for any
sort of operation beyond that. My Python/PIL installation works 
fine with other image files and my best guess is this is a
bug. Any thoughts?

Cheers,
Jeff
