Martin,

as William suggested, you can use the method I
described in my last post to achieve such round
edges (by the help of iso-surfaces in POV-Ray v3.5).

But it is also possible to do it by macros that
does all the necessary transformations and CSG
operations to the object(s) for you.

I have earlier posted several images to the
povray.binaries.images group, where such macros
has been used.

Here's one example image; "Inside it" 17. jan. 2001:
