In that case, POV Ray should issue a warning and continue, not stop with an error. If
you have a 
degenerate triangle, you get a warning and the parsing proceed. If you get a
degenerate bounding 
box, you get a warning and parsing proceed. That last one hapened to me while making a
macro.
The behaviour I expect: there is a degenerate <anything>, issue a warning, completely
ignore that 
element, proceed with the rest of the scene.
