Re-rendering a picture that worked fine on Beta 16, the sky was all red
instead of blue with white clouds.
Cutting out everything except what seems to be the problem the code is
this:

#local w=rgb.7;
camera{location<0,2,-5>}
light_source{y*99 1}
plane{y,0 pigment{ w*y }} // change the 0 to some other value 1, -1, and
the sky is OK
#local V=w*z;

sky_sphere
{ pigment
  { granite 
    color_map
    { [.4 w*z]  // replace w*z with variable V and the sky is OK
      [1 w+w]
    }
  }
}
#warning concat("<",str(w.x,5,3),", ",str(w.y,5,3),",
",str(w.z,5,3),">\n")
#warning concat("<",str(V.x,5,3),", ",str(V.y,5,3),",
",str(V.z,5,3),">\n")

The warnings show the values for w and V are correct.

If I change the offset parameter of the plane (zero), the sky works
fine.  Change it to 
  plane{y, -0 pigment{ w*y }}
and it works fine.

If I use a variable set to w*z (eg. V)  instead of having the
multiplication in line, then the sky works fine.

Thank you.
