k, next time i'll post in general first to make sure it's a bug.

little suggestion: you might put a (one time, not for every rays :)
warning in povray, so that when max_trace_level is reached, it says:
"oups, max_trace_level reached, try raising it!" 

It should be simple to implement, and prevent raytracing-newbies like me
to complain about bug that are in fact protections from infinite and
almost-infinite loops :P
