There seems to be an unwanted feature in pov 3.0, 3.1 and 3.5 where
checker and ramp_wave or poly_wave (as used below) do not behave as
expected. I would expect the default pigment to be ignored here and
not affect the box. Docs 6.7.12.3 don't seem to mention anything that
would give a clue.

      ramp_wave // Disable this to clear problem.
