Research direction

Start at indra/newview/llviewershadermgr.cpp line 632, then trace the initialization path through indra/newview/pipeline.cpp line 490 and indra/newview/llappviewer.cpp. Reproduce the failure involving windlight/atmosphericsVarsV.glsl and determine why shader loading reaches the crash; done means the reported startup failure no longer crashes the viewer.
