  Odd max trace reporting (Message 1 to 3 of 3)

I accidentally set max_trace_level to 2.1, and I got the following 
report in the message window:

   Max Level: 4/2

How does that work?

Platform:
POV-Ray 3.7.0.unofficial[*] (g++ 4.8 @ x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu)
openSUSE 13.2 GNU/Linux

[*]"Unofficial" just means self-compiled; no modifications were made.

I tried it in Windows 3.7 and UberPov 3.71 and got 2/2
So I cannot confirm it.

Im pretty sure it has nothing to do with the value of 2.1 you chose.

Aside from that, I cannot say more without doing a run of your scene in
debug mode. At the moment I would say it's impossible.
