However, on second glance, it appears to be somewhat wrong:
These changes are implemented in a backwards compatible way. For
applications compiled on Mac OS X v10.4, these filters continue to
behave on Mac OS X v10.5 as they did previously.
I can compile a test application on Mac OS X 10.4.10 and the gradient
will indeed render backwards in 10.5. :-/

As of Leopard, when I attempt to draw a linear gradient
(CILinearGradient) via any kind of context--an NSImage, an NSView
drawing itself (flipped or not), etc--the gradient start and end
colours are backwards. That is, if I start the gradient at black
and end it at white, it will appear on-screen as though I started
at white and ended at black. In Tiger, I did not have this problem.
Core Image Filters Behavior Changes
Two Core Image filters—CILinearGradient and CILineScreen—behave
differently on Mac OS X v10.5 as compared to Mac OS X v10.4. These
changes are implemented in a backwards compatible way. For
applications compiled on Mac OS X v10.4, these filters continue to
behave on Mac OS X v10.5 as they did previously. However, for
applications compiled on Mac OS X v10.5 or later, these filters
adopt the new behavior:
CILinearGradient. On Mac OS X v10.4, the gradient incorrectly
renders inputColor0 at inputPoint1 and inputColor1 at inputPoint0.
On Mac OS X v10.5, the gradient renders inputColor0 at inputPoint0.
CILineScreen. The inputSharpness parameter on Mac OS X v10.4
reaches maximal sharpness at 0.0, which is inconsistent with all
other halftone filters (CICircularScreen, CIDotScreen,
CIHatchedScreen). On Mac OS X v10.5, all halftone filters reach
maximal sharpness at 1.0.
