Possibly. Other explanations might be:
The white point is too different from the black point, and you
are noticing the transition from the neutral target to the black
point (ie. with the LCD default -k 0). Shifting the white target
to a hue nearer that of black may help, or using a -k > 0
may help at some cost to the contrast range.
It might be an optical effect (although your screen captures
hint otherwise). I've noticed some displays have quite
a hue shift with viewing angle near black, particularly
if the color is not naturally neutral. A larger -A parameter
may help in this situation (assuming -k 0).
It may be that the target curve shape is too much of a stretch
for the display near the dark end. This may be because the
current default is to use an input offset model of gamma curve
shape. You could try all output offset as an alternative (-f 1).
[I'm thinking of making this the default in 1.1.0 RC3].
