That was one bug. There was actually another bug. Gerald K. Dobiasovsky
suggested some other bugfixes back in July, 1999 which fixed bugs in
ultra_wide_angle and the four cylinder cameras. I have never used any of
these cameras, so I never came across the original bug nor do I know exactly
what the bugfixes change.
