Description
In TestPostFilter, when setting the renderer as LWJGL_OPENGL3 the signpost in the scene is completely black. This issue doesn't happen when the OPENGL2 renderer is used.
Note that the signpost displays fins with the opengl3 renderer in other tests like TestSpotLight.

Research direction
Start by reading the TestPostFilter and TestSpotLight cases mentioned in the report, then reproduce the scene with LWJGL_OPENGL3 and compare it with OPENGL2. Trace the renderer-specific lighting setup around the signpost; done means the signpost is no longer completely black while its fins continue to display under the OpenGL 3 renderer.
