To sum it up: you are running a patched, self compiled version.  That 
makes it even more unlikely that there is anything wrong with the 
original code that causes your problems.

Install official POV-Ray 3.6.1 and MegaPOV 1.2.1 without any additional 
patches.  If you build from source use the default compiler options. 
Anything else will void warranty :-)
