See the POV-Ray Distribution License:

   http://www.povray.org/distribution-license.html

Section 3.1.(d)(ii) may (or may not) be of particular interest to you 
(depending on what exactly you're planning to do).

If you find that said section does not apply to your case, or if you 
aren't sure about it, you can always play safe by obtaining written 
permission; see section 3.1.(e)(iii).

Not that I know; I guess it would have to be modified, in which case the 
Source License would become relevant:

You may also be interested to hear that the POV team intends to move to 
a GPL-based license.

You can render a scene from two different camera positions, and then 
post-process the images to create the anaglyph; some examples can be 
found in povray.binaries.images - look for posts from StephenS.

There is currently no dedicated feature for creating stereo images of 
any kind.

It does, provided you install it for all users. (I'm not very familiar 
with the installer though; you may need to run it as an admin to have 
access to the required option.)
