  Area light media artifact

I have a space ship orbiting a planet in my scene. The space ship has an 
area light in it that is visible from outside the ship through a window.

The planet has a thin atmosphere using scattering and emission media.

The combination of the two causes about half the planet to appear 
completely bright white. Changing the max_trace_level seems to have no 
effect.

Is this a precision issue? Is there a way to fix this? Thanks.


Michael
