FWIW, I just had a bad series of crashes (Megapov 1.2 Windows version, XP 
SP2, "POV-Ray has a problem and must be closed" message) on scenes not 
involving Mechsim (making HDR images using LightSys).
Some of them are reproducible (one at least was linked to a #debug stream) 
while others aren't (the renders works fine for a while for 3-4 runs and 
then crash POV). I haven't created a test scene but a slightly modified 
version of hdr_environment.pov (with view=3, radiosity commented off 
and -w300 -h150 +fh -ohdr_env.hdr in the command line) crashes either at the 
beginning of the render or at the end.
