The short thingy are suppose to do #swap the short values upon start
up... The symptom in the bitmap looks like the values in
ShortPointArrays are not swapped (or swapped twice?). The code looks
like what it should do... ShortIntegerArray class initialize has to
be called on a Mac before the image release?
I now remember that we have an extra (?) Mac in our office. I'll
check it tomorrow.
