Well, that's what you pass to vertex processing. But I think that what
comes out of vertex processing is already clamped in OpenGL. My reason
for thinking that is that in OpenGL we have to clamp the fog
coordinates in the vertex shader because fixed function fragment
processing doesn't seem to do any clamping.
