: letting cameras be inside unions.

  Thanx to this thread I found something that might be considered a bug.

  It started from the thought that if camera would be allowed to be in a
union, then it could be in any CSG. So what does this mean:

difference { camera { ... } sphere { 0,1 } }

?

  Then I thought: But hey! You can put a light source in a union. What
happens if you put it in a difference?
  I tried it and povray output this:

warning: Patch objects not allowed in intersection.

  Patch object?
