Error in getframe() ?

Lately I have noticed what I believe is an error in the function
getframe().
When an image is displayed in a figure of the same size with the axis
invisible,
I would expect [x,map]=getframe to return an array which is the same as
the
'Cdata' property of the image. However, getframe() does not return what
I expect.
Perhaps as example will better illustrate what I mean:
test=reshape(round(linspace(1,256,100*100)),100,100);
testmap=gray(256);
fh=figure('position',[100 100 100 100]);
axes('position',[0 0 1 1],'units','normal');
colormap(testmap);
ih=image(test);
set(gca,'visible','off');
[x,xmap]=getframe(gcf);
testc=get(ih,'Cdata');
testm=get(fh,'Colormap');
emap=testm-xmap;
e=testc-x;
sum(sum(abs(emap)))
sum(sum(abs(e)))
figure
colormap(gray);
imagesc(e);
The error is not even constant. If you display another image in a
different figure
before doing the test above, you will get a different error. For
example, try the
test above and then display the demo image gatlin:
load gatlin
figure
image(X)
colormap(map)
and then repeat the test above. I get a different answer.
Sure the error is small, but why is it there an error at all?
I am running Matlab 4.2c on a Sun.
