I was working on creating a displacement map for a globe, using a function to
vary the radius of a spherical isosurface.
I got bogged down in a bit of math to convert x,y,z into a latitude/longitude
map in the 0-1 range, but then when I thought I had that fixed, I started
getting:

Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I posted the code in the text files section:

You can likely use any image map you have lying around.
I used:

Perhaps someone can play with it a bit and see what triggers the core dump, and
maybe also come up with some better equations for converting cartesian to lat /
long and then to 0-1

I have tracked it down to the acos term in the Lat function.
#declare E = 0.000001;
acos (Y/Length(X, 0, Z)) crashes
acos (Y/Length(X, E, Z)) crashes
acos (Y/Length(X, 1, Z)) works
