I don't know what the limitation for the DOS version is.  It depends on the
stack size set when the program was compiled, and probably on how much
memory you have.  I'm running a custom compile of POV-Ray for Windows under
Win98 with 128MB of RAM, and I've gone up to a max_trace_level of 350 before
crashing.
