Hmmm.. I just went and looked at the SDL code and indeed thats what
its doing so I was mistaken.  Untill now I was just assuming that SDL
was doing that.

The stpcfb (from ST) code must be totally messing that IOCTL up then. 
I guess thats not so suprising since the stpcfb was broken in a couple
of other ways.  That device has been responsible for the bulk of my
pain.

I'll go compare it to a few of the other drivers and see what its
doing wrong now that I know its a bug and not a feature.

Thanks.
