If you do a s/\n/,/g so that it really *is* a comma-separated list (as
opposed to comma-and-newlines-separated), you can use - guess what -
POV-Ray :)

Yep. POV-Ray's file I/O functions read CSV perfectly fine, IEEE floats
included, provided that you don't rely on white space to separate your
values (because it won't).
