Bug description: setting no_image to an object in a merge causes that
object to stop casting shadows.

Sample code:

union {
  box { 0, 1 translate <-1,-1,-0.5> pigment { rgb 1 } }
  sphere { <-0.5, 0.5,0>, 0.5 pigment { rgb <1,0,0> } no_image }
}

merge {
  box { 0, 1 translate <0.5,-1,-0.5> pigment { rgb 1 } }
  sphere { <1, 0.5,0>, 0.5 pigment { rgb <1,0,0> } no_image }
}

light_source { <100,100,100> color rgb <1.3,1.2,1> }

camera {
  location <2,4,-4>
  look_at 0
  angle 30
}

System: K6III/400, 128 MB RAM, Win98 SE, POV-Ray 3.5 beta 7

Any confirmations? I didn't see it in the 11/27 known bugs list.
