Well, we figured out our problem but I thought I'd share it with the 
list anyway, just in case anyone else makes the same silly mistake.

It turns out we had set the ImageDisplay "Use Source Color Key" = Yes 
and Source Color Key = gray.  So any pixels matching the source color 
key (gray in this case) were not displayed.  Switching this off solved 
the problem.
