Hmm... I'm using Java3D version 1.2. But a look in the java3d docs
revealed that this version (from blackdown, for linux) was tested using
Java SDK 1.2.2. I was using SDK 1.3. So I installed the 1.2.2 version
and tried the example again but no change. Or do I have to recompile the
VisAD library with the 1.2.2 compiler?

Well, you're not the first person complaining about this, so I changed
it back to automatic wrapping again. This mail should be ok.
