After more work, I decided against using that macro fix, as it really wasn't
needed (the problem was better solved outside the macro.) Instead, there seems
to be *something* basically weird, having to do with how functions 'see'
image_maps (as opposed to how they deal with pigments/patterns); I even have
questions now about functions supposedly "evaluating the pattern on the X/Y
plane". Trying to sort it all out is rather complex and mind-numbing--but I'm
getting *closer* to an answer!
