Addendum:

The patch tests only additional boundings, that is only when 'bounded_by' 
is used. So the effect on everyday-scenes will likely be small. It could be 
extended to test the automatic-generated BoundingBox as well. But 
unfortunately POV-Ray does not generate a boundingbox-hirarchy with 
merge/intersections.. I do not really see why.
