Probably right.
The interesting part is that my rendering is black, not white, when
using the gcc compiled version while the icc one shocked on assert about

povray: backend/support/imageutil.cpp:935: int pov::map_pos(const double
*, const pov::Pattern_Struct *, double *, double *): Assertion `(*ycoor
>= 0.0) && (*ycoor < (double)image->iheight)' failed.

Will have to get a set of freshly compiled binaries to go further, so do
not hold your breath today.
