Dear Freesurfers,

I know that Qdec outputs coordinates in a "Freesurfer specific space", rather 
than in Talairach space, per this old thread

https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pipermail/freesurfer/2008-November/008878.html

However, I found that mri_surfcluster (Freesurfer v5.0) in its summary output 
also outputs coordinates in this same "Freesurfer specific space", even though 
the columns indicate TalX, TalY and TalZ. I was going to use this summary info 
to list the location of the statistical maxima of each cluster in a cortical 
thickness p-map. 

Is this a bug in mri_surfcluster? Any suggestions on how to get the coordinate 
data?

Here is the summary info for the left hemisphere (note the positive TalX 
values, when all X values should be negative):
