MegaPOV splits the no_image flag (which affects both radiosity rays and 
camera rays in official POV-Ray) into no_image and no_radiosity.  This 
is not affected by the #version directive at the moment.  There is no 
way the achieve the same effect in POV-Ray 3.6.

This seems very unlikely if you are not using any patches.
