	In Parse_Julia_Fractal (parse.c):

	There's a conflict in the MegaPOV code between the original 'sqr' item
and another one added by Chris Huff for the "Noise3DCubeSqrHatPatch" and
isosurfaces. Code is missing in here to handle the official use of 'sqr'.
So consider it as a bug - sorry but no time today to fix it :_(
