Are there any functions in the image library for dealing with
.sgi images that have been loaded into memory?  What I'd like to
do is load the run-length-encoded .sgi image files into memory
verbatim and _then_ do a memory-based getrow().

I don't know if there's a sneaky way to make the library think it's
looking at a file pointer with it's really looking at a pointer to
memory.

I don't know about libimage but our libil product (ImageVision Library) knows
how to do this sort thing very well.. you might want to check it out.
