Having fought this fight far too many times, I'm beginning to think
there's a need for a simple, small, and fast python module wrapping
libtiff, libpng, and libjpeg and talking to numpy.  This would handle
90% or more of everyone's needs and would hopefully be simpler to
install and use than PIL (and would have a faster development cycle).
