### Summary Where the number of CPU threads greater than one, subsurface render sub-block results are not stable render to render. Also see newsgroup thread: http://news.povray.org/povray.binaries.images/message/%3C5a941687%241%40news.povray.org%3E/#%3C5a941687%241%40news.povray.org%3E ### Environment Ubuntu 16.04....

The following example, originally from Sean Day, works as expect using -ur but not with the default +ur though the specified bounded_by box meets the "better bounding" tests in parse.cpp....
