PIL only reads uncompressed SGI images; the reference to "sgi_rle"
indicates that your images are run-length encoded.
Unfortunately, I cannot say that improving the SGI support is high on
my todo-list; the SGI driver was written in September 1995 (!), and I
don't think anyone's ever asked about this since then...
