The plib loader didn't honour the "light" token, so I didn't bother to
remove it (I was using it during construction). Potentially it could be
useful, if we could type in parameters in the .ac file that the loader =
could
use in addition to location. The default values aren't particularly =
useful,
but we almost have a taxi/landing light ready made. Of course, the AC3D
light might have to be incorporated into the scenegraph: currently it =
only
illuminates the ac model only.

Anyway, I'm sure that there are more important real bugs to remove. The
quick fix (already in cvs) is to remove the light :-)
