This is working great on Linux, I'll try Leopard later and fix the
crash before putting out a build.  I imagine the crash was due to a
lot of changes in the image system, which finally started to
stabilize yesterday.

The crash also happens with the example which doesn't use any image code.

Note that the first button doesn't behave as expected and the app entire
background gets affected.
Otherwise, I'm glad to hear about the latest changes that will benefit my
vaporware Flickr app.
