I hope that this hasn't been brought up before, I've checked the known
bugs and didn't see it. I get a very strange result when I render the
following scene in Pov3.5:

camera {
  location  <0.0, 2, -4>
  look_at   <0.0, 0.0,  0.0>
}
	
light_source { <-30, 30, -30>
  color rgb 1
}
	
plane { y, -.001
	pigment {
		checker
		color rgb 1
		color rgb .2
	}
}
	
cylinder { 0, y, 1 
  texture { pigment { color rgbt <1,1,1,.8> } }
  scale <.5,1,.5>
}

The critical value seems to be the -.001 with the plane.  If I change it
to, for example -.00100001 everything works as it should.
