Is the following an Xlib bug (it is certainly an Xlib programming subtlety)?

The function XCreateImage uses the values from the Display structure passed to
it to initialize byte_order, bitmap_unit, bitmap_bit_order and bits_per_pixel
in the XImage structure that it returns.  In general this seems wrong.
Shouldn't these values should be set relative to the client, not the server?
