Oh, fine...dig, dig, dig...  Shouldn't this be online
somewhere?  I posted the patch on a Zope mailing list.
dig, dig, dig...  Grrr...it's not in my past year's 
mail.

Lessee...the problem is in OFS/Image.py.  It doesn't
look like my current Zopes have the patch, but you
should be able to disable byterange support by commenting
out all of these lines.
	RESPONSE.setHeader('Accept-Ranges', 'bytes')
You might also need to set range/request_range to None.

Sorry I'm not clearer on this.  I've copied the list in
case someone with more understanding feels like jumping
into the discussion.
