The spec says that row length is the number of pixels.  It is really confusing 
when 1984/3=661.3333 -- is not a "whole" number of pixels.

Yes, I've set GL_UNPACK_ALIGNMENT to 1, don't remember why anymore. I've just 
removed my changes from  image_get_linesize and commented out 
GL_UNPACK_ALIGNMENT calls and it appears to be magically working.

Thank you,
