For anybody reading this who has been looking for a way to get involved in
OIIO... this is an ideal case of a "good first issue" -- doesn't require deep
code knowledge, will be a < 10 line fix, and the gist of what needs to be done
is already laid out here.
If you want to give it a try, please say so here so that there aren't 10 people
trying to do the same fix (I wish) or that I don't do it instead, thinking that
nobody else will.
