Looks like this can be landed, no?

It turns out this isn't needed. The pixel results I was working with only contained alpha due to bugs. No Windows pixel results should contain alpha, so this shouldn't be an issue. But by specifying kCGImageAlphaPremultipliedFirst, rather than throwing away the alpha, we can discover bugs that cause alpha to be written into the image.

Wow, this comment is very confused!
