It is generally agreed that it is not really possible.

This link works (just tested it) - http://home.europa.com/~keithr/crossroads/
Crossroads will read a "union" of triangles and convert it to whatever
Crossroads supports as far as exports BUT it will not read a mesh or
any of the other POV-Ray primitives and export them. In this sense it
is very limited and even reading a union of triangles it often gets
it wrong. It depends on how well behaved the union of triangles that
you are trying to convert is.
