Thanks for letting me know.

I thought I had just fixed all issues of the kind reported by user
"crystal" on povray.unix, but apparently I've missed the OpenEXR code.
Turns out that the Travis CI Mac OS X environment we're using for our
test builds - the warnings of which I used to identify the offending
statements in the code - doesn't have the OpenEXR libraries installed,
so I didn't get the warnings for those.

Apparently "crystal" also didn't have the OpenEXR libs installed, as he
reported the changes as successful.


For the records, what g++ version did you use for your tests?
