  Crash in VMWare

Hi,

I'm sitting on a Suse Linux Workstation and I'm running Windows 2000 
under VMWare. POV-Ray 3.7 beta 3 crashes while rendering the bitmaps of 
the include menu. I was able to track it down to the coords key word in 
the facets pattern.

This is a minimal scene for reproducing:

//--[BEGIN]--//
light_source {
     <0, 5, 0>
     color rgb 1
}

plane {
   y, -1
   pigment { color rgb 1 }
   normal {
         facets 0.5
	//--> uncomment to crash POV-Ray
         //coords -1.5
         scale 3
       }
}
//--[END]--//

My configuration:
Hardware:
Athlon XP 3200+
1 GB RAM (256 MB reserved for VMWare)

Software:
Suse Linux 9.2 (Kernel 2.6.5-7.111
VMWare 4.5.2
   running Windows 2000 SP 4
   POV-Ray 3.7 beta 3

So long,

Bonsai
