I am using povray-3.8.0-alpha.10064268-av691-win64 which is stable as 
far as I can tell: I never had any strange things happening. Don't know 
where Clipka has wandered off to, but I have assumed that he has decided 
to dedicate himself entirely to the development of POV-Ray, without 
being disturbed by our shouts and bangings on the front door. ;-)

I may be wrong, though...
