The spike is well away from any such "join". NASA (JPL, ASU, MSSS,...)
never used a software that produced such crude artefacts of any Mars image.
And I realy saw a LOT of such images. I have some expirence in remote sensing
image aquisition and processing. I assure you that this spike is no glitch of
the camera, transmission or any processing. You would realy need a paint
program to get anything like that.

I`m now waiting for the color image. Here the spike may not be white but
with some red, green or blue distortion. That would be no glitch but an
effect of a moveing or shape changing object imaged three times - by the
3 color filters.

"The Stereo Surface Imager has by now completed about 55 percent of its
three-color, 360-degree panorama of the Phoenix landing site, Tamppari
said." (University of Arizona, Press Release, June 26, 2008)

Has someone already found the color spike there?
