Thank you everyone who looked at this for me, I finally convinced myself that this is a bug in Rev and filed it in Bugzilla (#2308).

I did manage to build by external under Windows, but have not tested the faulty routine there yet. I suspect (from the below report) that it is a Mac-specific bug, so until Rev gets this fixed, I will just have to use the slow Transcript version, at least for the Mac. I will test under Windows later, and if the external works there, I'll attach a note to the bug report that it is OS X specific and then use the external for Windows at least, both when it is fixed.

!!! Are you sure you're passing the same data to each routine? I get
the same results from the transcript code and the external even when I
use the imageData of an image.

Well, admittedly I did the quick test in Win2k (I can hear Chipp
laughing at me even now) - I'll try to give it a test under OSX
tomorrow if I get a chance.
