3.5 beta 13 for win

I never heard about this bug so I report it. Remembering discusion about
changes in chess.pov I don't know how you want to treat this report: as
historical mistake not worth to change, important imformation or known fact.
Anyway:

In chars.inc last components of char_2 object is:

    box{<-0.999,0.5,0>,<3.5,1.5,1> rotate -z*(90+54) translate <0.5,3.5,0>}

while it is obvious visible bug of shape "2" - it could be something like:

    intersection{
      box{<0,0.5,0>,<3.5,1.5,1> rotate -z*(90+54) translate <0.5,3.5,0>}
      box{<-2,0,-0.1>,<2,5,1.1>}
    }

Images after moment in p.b-t.binaries.

ABX
