I guess I didn't really look at the code good enough, the description seemed to
indicate coincident surface.

I can see what is meant now.  I can verify it is happening though I don't know
why.  It occurs as long as there is a pigment attached to the differencing box
and the bottom box is below the cut surface of the sphere, but still viewed
through the sphere.
