Christophe Bouffartigue told me there was a bug with radiosity
not taking "double-illuminate" into account.  It was reported once,
but I don't see it on the "known bugs" list.

I can provide details and test scene, if needed.

Fabien.

Are you sure this should really be called a bug?  It would of course be
best if you could change this with some switch (like with 'normal on'),
but you can't say it's wrong not to take it into account.

It's currently on the unconfirmed list.

double_illuminate only works with direct lighting

I accept your post as a confirmation and promote it to being a known
bug.
