1) that was not the error message, and it is not the actual error, either.
Please don't guess here: it helps immensely to have accurate subjects.
2) I don't think this is a very good way to use image. You are
specifying the midpoints of an uneven sequence: it makes a lot more sense
to specify the break points.
3) You don't need to go to C code here: just run debug(image.default)
4) There was a bug in the algorithm to find the breakpoints from the
midpoints. I am about to fix it.
