Description

Specular objects go black when the camera gets close.

Reproduction steps

Set Preferences > Graphics > Quality and Speed to High, or toggle Mirrors on in Advanced Graphics Preferences.
Look at the sphere at secondlife://Aditi/secondlife/Rumpus%20Room%204/85/167/23
Zoom in close to the sphere.

Observed: The sphere turns black.

Expected: The sphere should not turn black. As is seen when the camera is zoomed out a bit.

Also reproduced on Windows. Seems to occur when enabling Mirrors in Advanced Graphics Settings https://gyazo.com/f100a8b030fbe5ea7e72f4177d023456

FWIW, this also repros on Linux. This is definitely tied to enabling mirrors, as disabling mirrors restores the expected behavior.
