I ran across a few problems while trying to work out some more FFT code, and am
wondering if it's a bug, or just some massive error on my part.

The first was trying to get a debug stream to write to file, but not to console.
 I used -GD and -GDFFT_Debug.txt and neither turned off output to the console.
I also tried Debug_Console=off in the "command line" section of the windows GUI,
and still got output to the screen.

The most disturbing thing that I was struggling with, is that POV-Ray seemed to
be loading a different .gif file than the one I was specifying.
At first I was using just the filename, then I specified the full path just to
make sure.  Identical results.
I can't even begin to imagine how this happens.

I had the same problem with 3.7 and 3.71 Beta 2

I didn't get a chance to see if it was only for gifs, and worked fine for jpg,
png, etc.
Could someone check this out?
