Bug Description

I've scanned a document with OmniPage on a Windows PC; I've saved the image as black and white png and I can open it on Windows, but on Ubuntu Eye of GNOME gives me (for one image only) the critical error «PNG: Decompression Error» and doesn't open it, while Mirage, GIMP, GQview and F-Spot show an empty image.
The output of a pngcheck -vtf (as suggested here: http://osdir.com/ml/graphics.png.devel/2007-03/msg00039.html) follows:

File: [...] (101408 bytes)
chunk IHDR at offset 0x0000c, length 13
2480 x 3507 image, 1-bit grayscale, non-interlaced
