I hadn't even thought of that!

And after some testing, it seems that's the problem.  My test code can be
found here:

I'm surprised at how ubiquitous using power-of-two textures must be.
Basically no other applications seemed to have problems.  I never had
problems, so I guess I assumed it was irrelevant.

Uggggh I assume I'll have to rewrite my texture code so that it can take an
argument to scale surfaces to the nearest factor of two.  Any other way?  I
know of ARB_texture_rectangle, but that sounds horrible.  Blech.  I hate
Intel.
