I have just tested my webcam "ID 0ac8:303b Z-Star Microelectronics Corp. ZC0303 WebCam" on Windows Vista using XP drivers (DELL Inspiron 1525) and definitely is not a hardware problem.
It works, I may say, surprisingly well.
This bug is not yet fixed.
It is alive and kicking.

The image is still upside down and yellow/green
I was using Fedora Rawhide last week and this bug is also present there. ( 2.6.29 Kernel)
So, There is something odd or missing on the bug.
I hope the kernel dev team have a look on this issue in the Karmic cycle.
I'm available for further testing through launchpad.
