I agree.  I did mean config.h.  And the Dan Connelly's proposed change for
the sphere scaling bug is a good one.  However, I still think that the
EPSILON in the DOS/Win versions needs to be changed.  It is much bigger
than the EPSILON used for Unix/Mac machines (or so I'm told).  Why?  They
should be consistent, IMHO.  10e-5 is really quite large... for an epsilon.
It is only 0.00001.
