... but I redid a loop and this is when I noticed the 2 choices on the 
Exposure and Colour lines. I changed both to to zero and this worked.

Thank you Bruno for leading me to this. 

I wonder why this does not happen all the time, though. In the panoramas I 
did recently, there were pictures with different EEVs and I did have to fix 
those in Gimp. So I still wonder why sometimes Hugin decides to fix the 
exposure and sometimes it does not.
