Should I presume +KFI0 +KFF360 +KI0 +KF1 ?
(361 frames, initial clock 0, final clock 1) ?

The first frame (at clock 0) is full black here, is it normal ?
later frame are better.

parse time about 4 minutes, render time is futile (14 seconds on frame 2).
And the memory reported by top is rather 14.7 GB of virtual memory (on
64 bits) for the povray process.

(PS: 124 hard-coded paths of include, arghh... <3
I also got a warning on each inc, about a null normal vector)
