Renderer.java, line 792: Do you need to copy ERR_STEP_MAX into a

I always copy constants used in loops to avoid repeated constant
lookups.
I was under the understanding that if a constant is declared final and
static, then it is compiled directly into the code and there is no
constant lookup. Check the bytecodes and you should see a hard-coded
literal 0x7fffffff everywhere it is used...
