It's a newer feature, and it's only in the superpatch.  Unfortunately, nobody
has yet succeeded in building a Mac version of the superpatch. :(

Fortunately, you can still do a lot with noise3d without using bozo (which 
is practically noise3d anyway.)  See my recent posting in 
povray.text.scene-files for an isosurface-based box with a noisy surface.
