This must be a hardware-related issue since I don't see it. Does it also
happen under Windows on the same machine? And do you see it with other
images as well, or just with the non-standard size wreckreation images?

In fact, the 32x32 view is really 44x48, to accomodate the special big
images. And the 16x16 view is really 24x26. And so on.

Well, that is how the Selected as Terrain is supposed to work, i.e. to draw
all units agains the selected image as background. The closeups are not
supposed to be affected. Naturally, it will look strange if you select a
unit image as terrain, but the program does it anyway.
