  bug in Super Patch  
From: David Wilkinson

Testing various patterns as height fields in SuperPatch I ran into this bug. For
certain
critical camera positions SuperPatch crashes with an illegal operation (invalid page
fault).  Change the camera position slightly or the position of the object and it runs
fine.  It's no real problem but I thought Ron might be interested :-)  (or not!)

}

light_source

           color_map { 
             [0 rgb 0] 
             [1 rgb 1] 
           } 
      }
