Rendering that old standby Pawns.pov (in scenes/objects/) shows odd
texture artifacts in the chessboard tiling.  I'm not familiar with POV's
implementation, but it looks as though the determination of which
texture(s) lie at which point is broken.  I rendered it at 1280x1024
with antialiasing; I assume that smaller sizes will also exhibit this
bug to anyone interested in tracking it down.

You might want to fix your system date.. ;-P  I had to wonder, even for a
split second, how you saw 3.1 in '96..  ;-P
