Never - and FWIW the answer will be the same for a program you pay 
thousands of dollars for.

Note the POV-Ray radiosity feature has been originally created in 1996 
and has been significantly improved in MegaPOV 0.x and as such has been 
available in POV-Ray 3.5 since 2002.  So it has been available for at 
least 5 (or even 10) years for anyone to improve, fix bugs or create a 
completely new alternative solution.  And a new, better global 
illumination solution would still be extremely welcome.  But you can be 
assured that this is not an easy task because despite all shortcomings 
the POV-Ray radiosity feature is quite efficient and robust.
