I fixed the depth problem. Here's the working code:

camera
{
 orthographic
 location -z*(CameraDistance)
 direction z*(CameraDistance)
 up vaxis_rotate(y,z,-15/2)*5/2
 right vaxis_rotate(x,z,15/2)*5/2
 rotate z*15
 rotate x*asind(tand(30))
 rotate y*45
 Axis_Rotate_Trans(<1,1,0,>, -15)
}

light_source
{
 <0, 0, -100>            // light's position (translated below)
 color rgb <1, 1, 1>  // light's color
 rotate <60,30,0>
 parallel
 shadowless
}

box
{
 -0.5,0.5
 texture
 {
  pigment {rgb 1}
  finish {Phong_Glossy}
 }
}

The rotations aren't perfect due to roundoff errors. There's noticable jagginess
on edges that are supposed to be smooth. If someone could look through the code
and simplify things in order to reduce the number of floating point
calculations, I would *really* appreciate it.
