[Radiance-general] soft shadows!

[Gregory J. Ward]

You shouldn't be seeing these lines.  I expect the -dj .6 combined with 
-ds .1 are causing aiming failures that are resulting in these weird 
arguments.  I concur with Mark's suggestion, though the -DMC 
recompilation is a bit drastic.  You might simply try -ds .4 -dj .4 
first to see if that fixes it.
