You're right. 3.8.0-alpha.9322209 has the same issue.

I'm not sure how you got them to go away - they certainly don't for me.
I've tried removing the translation and rotation, and moving the camera, the
light sources, etc. Gave the finish a little specular reflection - still there.
I used a cubic_spline instead - still there.
I suppose I ought to mention that when i was deveoping a recent scene with a
bell - I used a SOR, and I saw the same sort of artefact.
<snippet>
#declare bellSpline = array [12] {
< 3.4688, 0.0001>,
< 3.4688, 0.0002>,
< 3.0938, 0.4375>,
< 2.9375, 0.6250>,
< 2.4844, 1.3438>,
< 2.1719, 2.6094>,
< 2.0469, 4.4688>,
< 1.9063, 4.6875>,
< 1.7500, 4.8750>,
< 1.0313, 5.0938>,
< 0.0001, 5.1563>,
< 0.0001, 5.1564>
}
.....
#declare Bell1 =
union {
cylinder {<0, 0, 0>, <0, (5.0938/2)+1, 0> 0.125}
sphere {0, 0.25}
torus {0.125, 0.125/4 rotate x*90 translate -y*0.25}
object {Handle translate -y*1}
sor {
arraySize+1,
#for (B, 0, arraySize)
#local NewSpline = bellSpline [B]/2;
//#debug concat ("B = ", str (B, 3, 1), "| Point = ", vstr (2, bellSpline [B],
",", 5, 1), "\n")
#declare Xmax = max (Xmax, NewSpline.x);
#declare Ymax = max (Ymax, NewSpline.y);
NewSpline,
#end
open
}
//texture { T_Gold_1B }
texture { mtex }
//pigment {rgb <1, 1, 0>}
}
</snippet>
So there's something going on - just in general.

It's when the camera is perpendicular to sides (within vertical extent, ignoring
actual surface curvature) facing camera, so if it gets tilted away enough for
either the base or cap imaginary infinite reach outward to miss the camera it
doesn't show.
I was checking doing that; it can make a line of surface color outward into
space away from the surface, along with the colorless mess. The extent seems to
get confined to the maximum x point, so I don't know if that's a result of
bounding or what but I didn't see it go beyond sides of a box with same
dimensions. Or more precisely, kept within a cylinder of maximum x dimension.
Your bell again below, able to be added directly into lathe scene file and
rendered to show its trouble with this.

Unfortunate that the same can't be said for lathe, which doesn't seem affected
by sturm at all.

The confinement you're seeing there is the lathe's internal bounding
mechanism kicking in, which does indeed use cylinders (instead of boxes)
to bound each individual segment.

I wouldn't be surprised if these artefacts were related to a similar
issue with 3rd-order polynomials (e.g. bezier or cubic) in the sphere
sweep primitive.

It should be though, as it does pass the flag to the root solver.

I too think this likely the case.
Christoph, do you want to update the sphere_sweep github issue :
https://github.com/POV-Ray/povray/issues/147
to include this lathe case?
Or, should we create a new github issue for it and reference #147 as
likely related?
Bill P.

I think it would be cleaner to create a new issue. We don't know at this point
whether they are genuinely related -- and I'm pretty sure each needs its own
separate fix anyway.

OK. See: https://github.com/POV-Ray/povray/issues/335
