ObservedBehavior:
The image at http://www.FurNation.com/bucky/yarr/menu/Ky-butts.gif
causes my Tk to freeze. GIMP and giftopnm can handle it.

DesiredBehavior:
No image should be able to freeze the image system.

This does not freeze 8.2.2 on Solaris of NT. It does take about
8 seconds to load in, but it doesn't freeze.
