this is an artifact of the translation from c to slang
the line came from the JPEGPlugin:
formPix = (255 << 24) | (buffer[0][i+rOff] << 16) | (buffer[0][i+gOff] 
<< 8) | buffer[0][i+bOff];
                                if (formPix == 0) formPix = 1;

there is an error handler for png errors, which will return to squeak, 
but no other checks.
