  area_illuminate bug

Hi,

While building a mesh macro earlier, I noticed a bug when using the 
area_illuminate keyword with an open object. The new keyword treats all 
open objects as if they have double_illuminate enabled in their object 
definitions. This probably explains my confusion during earlier attempts 
to use area_illuminate with shadowless light sources.

Since I found no mention of this in the change log, I will assume it has 
not yet been observed.

I am running 3.7.beta.24 on Windows XP.

Sam
