RTFM.  If you look up angle aspect cameras in the QD3D manual, the 
discussion of fov says

"If the value in the aspectRatioXToY field is greater than 1.0, the 
field of view is vertical; if the value in the aspectRatioXToY field 
is less than 1.0, the field of view is horizontal."

Hmm, speaking of docs, the comments on TQ3ViewAngleAspectCameraData 
in QuesaCamera.h are a bit unclear on this.  I think I'll change it.
