The code you posted does not cause problems on my DOS versions of POV-Ray
3.1a or 3.1e. However, the file does crash on my copy of 3.1d. Changing
the #local directives within the macro to global #declare's seems to fix the
problem.
As to the cause, I can only suspect a compiler problem (or incompatibility
with your system). I compiled my copies of 3.1a and 3.1e for myself (using
DJGPP), whereas the official copy of 3.1d (like your copy) was compiled by a
WatCom compiler.
