I must admit that the whole issue is very confusing to me.

Not using grays in my example, but picking the following vector in Gimp: 
<213, 127,  79>/255 and rendered in POV-Ray as rgb or srgb give 
different results from the original (see image in p.b.i.). So, what is 
correct? My gamma settings are not an issue as they are correctly set by 
the way.
