I have some trouble finding that in the code - I find the reverse. If
the X increment is positive (or the Y increment negative) then the
code scaled the brightness of the POIN object by the cell size with a
negative sign included. All other models use BMAJ and BMIN - if one
of those were negative then the source would be negative. I have
changed the code to use ABS(BMAJ), ABS(BMIN) and the ABS of the
product of the increments in the POINt case.
