Yes, fixed! =:^)

But now that I can actually see them using the new code without crashes... 
to answer your earlier question about whether it's inversed color...

Yes, it's inversed/negative, at least for x-face.  See that post from Adam 
I mentioned earlier, for instance.

Some of those x-faces on the gmane.discussion group look pretty odd, ATM. 
=:^) but =:^(

I'm not sure about face headers.

Talking about face headers... in that group (gmane.discussion), it appears 
Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen (the guy running gmane, FWIW) has some sort of 
script for a rotating face header, so you can check a LOT of face headers 
"in the wild" by simply sorting by author, unthreaded, and viewing his 
posts.  He doesn't rotate every post, but apparently every day or maybe 
every few hours.
