When the setInput method of the standard GIF or PNG readers is called, a number
of instance variables may still hold settings obtained from the previous
stream. When a read occurs, these settings will not match the new stream
position and contents, which may result in erroneous behavior.

  This behavior was found by Pravenn Mohan, who supplied a test case where
the GIF reader throws an OutOfMemoryException. I have streamlined this case
and will place it in test/javax/imageio/SetInputTest.java.

Regression test javax/imageio/SetInputTest.java fails with Merlin build build60 on sol2.7, host tiggr. This is a new test since b57.
Setting state back to NYI because of this failure. eMail al.smith@eng with any questions.
For test hardware config's, see http://sqesvr.eng/st3/jdk1.4/docs/Merlin-hw.html
