Yep! But I screwed up porting your fixes to the dyesub family..

So do you think we should keep the option of using the old 
behaviour?

On a related note, I've contemplating just ripping out support in the 
dyesub driver for per-printer curves.  They haven't actually worked 
since 2006, and what few exist are invalid in light of the gamma curve 
change.  IMO standard ICC profiles should be used instead.
