   No, that's just regular HDRI (my pseudo-HDRI was a trick wich didin0t
use hdr files, just emulated, badly, the dynamic range).

   Here you have just radiosity artifacts, which I suppose come from my
thekitchen.hdr (that's why the other image didn't show them). The
reason must be that as the artifacts (circle-like spots) are so largue,
the partial pretrace can't catch them entirely... or something like
that. But the photons seems to have come out OK on the continued renders...
