Yes, this is a bug.  WWWOFFLE was not expecting that the height or
width could be anything other than a number.

This patch below should fix the problem.

>From your example though I can see another type of webbug that
WWWOFFLE will not detect:

 <img width="10" height="10" src="..." style="width: 0px; height: 0px;"/>

The HTML part is a non-zero size but the CSS part is zero size.
WWWOFFLE only checks the HTML and not the CSS (parsing one within the
other is difficult and the relevant CSS might not be in the <img> tag
but in a style sheet or in a <style> tag somewhere else).
