This is possibly a scoop :

Intel plans to run demos that would use POV-Ray (and possibly Megapov)
at the next LinuxWorld (in New York, Jan 29-Feb 2). The idea is to
demonstrate the speed of their Intel "Alpha" Linux Compiler on a P4 at
1.5 Gz.

In fact, they contacted me because they wanted to use my "Wet Bird" IRTC
pic for the demo, expecting it to render in 5 minutes (something that
Moore's Law don't agree with unfortunately). Very probably, they'll
contact the POV-Team and/or Nathan Kopp about compiling POV/Megapov in
an optimal way. (they also agreed for me to report this here, BTW).
