>>If I may add my comment to the discussion, I agree to the  effect of cosmic 
rays on the CCD. Please look at other raw images  at:

http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/gallery/all/spirit_p643.html

Many  of these images contain similar traces, if all of these were meteors, 
then a  real shower has happened.

After looking at the other images Wim referred to, I have to agree  that 
cosmic rays on the CCD are the most likely culprits....Shucks! :O)
