I don't think you can really blame software developers for this. The use of gamma in digital image processing corresponds pretty closely to the meaning of gamma as used by electronics engineers to describe (or approximate) the variation in output brightness of a CRT as a function of the input voltage.
If this doesn't match the use of gamma in film-based photography then the confusion was spawned long before the days of digital imaging packages.
