  Yes: I have unrealistically bright radiosity settings. It makes objects
glow light by themselves (or more precisely, they reflect more light than
they receive).
  What you are seeing is just the white spotlight cylinder reflecting light
form the lit part of the scene. As I said, it reflects more than it receives,
so that is what is causing the effect.

  Btw, if I use realistic brightness in this image (ie. brigthness 1),
everything is nearly as dark as in the non-radiosity image.
