The texture will be resized to the next largest - so for 250x250 you
would have ended up with 256x256, which isn't much of a difference. For
260x260 you would have ended up with 512x512 internally, which can
quickly chew up vram.

There are some extensions to allow support of non-power-of-2 textures,
but unfortunately they come with fairly severe restrictions.

Adding support for them would be a possibility, but they're really
intended for "straight on" texture usage (e.g., drawing textured quads
to the screen as per Quartz Extreme) rather than general purpose
texturing.
