This is one of those things that is just far enough out of the ordinary that
everybody gets messed up on it initially. Some converters never do resolve
the issue. It took the better part of a year before Adobe satisfactorily
fixed ACR when the E-1 came out. Everything was all honky dory until Adobe
built the DNG converter and promptly broke the whole thing again and it took
a while for them to fix it all over again (and according to some tests, it
still isn't resolved).

I'm not stabbing at Adobe here because they just happen to be one example.
Raw Shooter was horrible at this and DCRAW based converters never did handle
it correctly until the VNG-4 algorithm was incorporated.
