After upgrading to ACEDB_4.9s, sgifserver seems to provide gif-images 
where the first byte is NULL and the last byte is dropped. 

AcePerl now outputs faulty gifs with the obj->asGif method (Object.pm). As
AcePerl has not changed, and giface client produces good gifs I assume
something changed in sgifserver. Anyone else seen this?

I also tested 4.9u with same results.
Compiled with gcc 3.2.2 on Linux RH9, -O2/-03 optimation.
