"woodmaps.inc" has a reference to color Clear, which is defined
in "colors.inc", yet the former doesn't load the latter.

But there is no reason to.  I think these references should instead
be changed to "rgbt 1" to save the resources associated with loading
the colors.inc file.  There are no other references to "colors.inc"
in "woodmaps.inc".

Ken has kindly pointed out to me that Clear is rgbf 1, not rgbt 1.

The case in question is the following:

#declare M_Wood19B =
color_map {
    [0.00 0.30 color rgb <0.35, 0.175, 0.0875> 
               color rgb <1.00, 0.500, 0.2500> ]
    [0.30 1.00 color rgbf 1 color rgbf 1]  // had "Clear" instead of "rgbf 1"
}


Note if this map was included in another map, for example
in an average, the result could depend on if filter or transmit
was used.  Therefore Ken is correct -- it should be "rgbf 1"
for Clear, as declared in "colors.inc".
