Pretty much unlikely.

I'd rather suspect some very obscure situation that's not handled 
properly in POV-Ray. The parser /does/ have at least one of those (for 
instance, there's a very rare situation in which forgetting a single 
closing parenthesis will actually /crash/ POV-Ray on a Windows machine).

The apparent randomness of the symptoms would strongly indicate a 
"dangling pointer" or some such being involved.
