Hello,

As already reported in a message on povray.beta-test on 31/05/2002
by Slime, the "accuracy" keyword is ignored and has no visible
effect, at least when the normal is not declared directly in the
object definition.

In the file normal.cpp, in the function Copy_Tnormal, the Delta field
of the TNORMAL is not copied. By adding the line

New->Delta = Old->Delta;

under the same one copying the Amount, the accuracy keyword is now
taken into account.
