They're pretty standard and unoptimized, but since they are only called a very
few times during a heavy-weight process, and for 32x32 images it's not a big
deal.  It just steps over the destination image, figures out which pixel in the
source image that pixel maps to, and then does any color space conversions.
A nicer way would be to promote all images to 32 bits and then do some 2d
bilinear filtering. 8)  It's sure nice to have a 1BOPS machine for under 1K$.

Can you try again at 32bpp and see if things are munged?  I didn't notice
any problems with the quickie konqueror runs I did (over a 56k modem, you
don't wanna do a long konqueror remote run, trust me) at 32bpp with the
16x16 icons.  That would narrow down where to look by a lot.
