Okay, okay. After looking at some other rad tests, I can see that it
does in fact do this, under the right circumstances. It does a terrible
job of it, though; in my initial tests with one disc, one cylinder, and
a plane, and no light_source, I couldn't see any shadow at all. After
adjusting the settings a bit, the difference was dramatic (and much more satisfying).

P.S. I've posted the source to text.scene-files as promised.
