Has any thought been given to changing the RGB values for Brown in
colors.inc for the next release of POVRay? Or is this bug a tradition
that goes back too far?

I recently added the following definitions to one of my include files:
#declare Brown2 = color red .4 green .2 blue .1 ; // lighter brown
#declare Brown3 = color red .2 green .1 blue .0 ; // Nice brown
#declare Brown4 = color red .2 green .05 blue .0 ; // deep, redish brown
#declare Brown5 = color red .15 green .035 blue .0 ; // even darker,
#declare Brown6 = color red .12 green .05 blue .0 ; // deep, brown
#declare Brown7 = color red .1 green .015 blue .0 ; // very dark brown
YMMV
And your monitor may vary, too.

Oops. I see that Netscape uses the same values for its Brown. Can't
find the X colors, but I'm sure that's where it originates.
It just looked real purple to me.
Never mind.
