Reversed raster after readGDAL()

Hi!

After

r3 <- readGDAL("test2.tif")
test2.tif has GDAL driver GTiff
and has 256 rows and 256 columns

image(r3,col=rainbow(128))
I get the image N-S reversed.

I've put an screenshot and the actual geotif image here:

Collected from:

Yes, it is flipped on the Y axis. What software made it? Could you please 
show the images with axes, as I think that the GTiff has a wrong sign on 
its y-step? What are the coordinates of the NW and SW corners of the image 
in QGIS? GDAL expects images to be read by row N to S, so a y-step with 
the wrong sign (+ instead of -) flips the image northward.
