That is certainly not correct.  Trying to render this scene with 
official POV-Ray results in:

File: wt_stb.pov  Line: 8
File Context (5 lines):

#version unofficial MegaPov
Parse Error: This file was created for an unofficial version and cannot 
work as-is with this official version.

Trying to render with MegaPOV 1.x results in:

File: wt_stb.pov  Line: 8
Parse Warning: This file was designed for (unofficial) MegaPov version 
0.7.  You are using version 1.2. Some features may have changed.

And i think this completely explains why it does not work.

You can fund some information how you can translate MegaPOV 0.x 
isosurface syntax in Mike's isosurface tutorial:
