  Camera matrix bug

The following code generates the error:

Slab Building Error: Cannot use non-perpendicular camera vectors with vista
buffer.

which is a bug because the matrix transform here is not non-perpendicular.
In fact the matrix specified here is the same as a simple translation of
<5,5,5>.

camera {location 0 look_at z matrix <1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,5,5,5>}

I'm using POV-Ray 3.5 beta 1
on a P150, 16MB RAM
Windows 95  4.00.450 B  IE 5 5.00.2919.6307
