[Bf-committers] 2.5 sculpt bugs + suggestion

[Wahooney]

Okay, so anchor works now and I might have found the culprit with Clay, 
but I found it in Smooth... That is if they share code, if not I just 
found a bug in Smooth :P

If you use Smooth with a brush strength of 1.0 the mesh deforms rather 
horribly. Not sure if the problems are related as I couldn't get Clay to 
break again.
