Wierd.  It seems to me to be some sort of self-reflection
due to problems with the normal calculation applied to
rays of near-grazing incidence.

It seems to be eliminated by using ambient 0 diffuse 0 --
a perfectly reflecting surface is what you want, right?

P.S. A more direct way to rotate the light is to put
a "rotate" statement in the light rather than explicit
sin and cos calculations.... it comes down to preference,
I suppose.
