Exactly, it happens after successive renders and since the scene I've been
using that produces it is hard to render, it is hard to confirm. Right now
I'm trying to duplicate it on a seperate PII 450, Win98 256.

Sigh. I really hope there's a simpler way to confirm this or someone else
happens upon it. I'm in the middle of a scene and it's impossible to
continue since I can't render the whole thing without it freezing. The
completed scene has a large amount of texturing as well, like lots of
pigment maps, etc. Could this "aid" in getting a floating point
overflow/underflow? What exactly causes this error?
