Ok, thanks, I will use version 3.5 then.

What is weird though with version 3.6 is when you add a dummy radiosity 
block like:

global_settings {
   radiosity {
	pretrace_start 0.08
	pretrace_start 0.01
   }
}

You can clearly see that the image is ok during pretrace but then, the 
final trace goes wrong.
