If you are a novice to ray-tracing, you should not be doing this at all.
There is a simple reason why POV-Ray is not multithreaded, and that is that
the source code is not up to it without changes to various algorithms that
requires a very good understanding of ray-tracing.  I would very strongly
advise to not waste time trying to hack a multithreaded implementation of
the 3.x source code together.  It is not going to work completely - ever!
