My memory is that this scene file, made in 3.5:

Got corrupted into this on my box with 3.6 with no SDL changes, just over
time:

and--WTH??-- the offending code is the small snippet above--something right
ABOVE my code for the mesh.

My character is a union of a gazillion things, including blobs and CSG
objects.  Given properly defined variables above, isn't this a
self-contained statement, in that I've got it properly bracketized????

But removing it, this one item in the CSG, I have brought back correct
functionality to my mesh, in that my mesh is not showing up with 100x the
diameter it is supposed to have.  WTH???
