Well poo.

Changing my SDL from #version 3.7 to 3.8 causes the image to be much darker.
I can't do that.  I'd have to re-render 6 months worth of frames.

(and the annoying not-an-error "possible error" comes through as a 
"mGenericStatus" message (normally the 'Rendered 10 of 20 pixels (50%)' 
messages) so it shows up in the povwin status bar.  This confuses my 
renderfarm progress bars, which resize bigly to display the message that 
shouldn't even be there.)
