No, it isn't.  But there's been discussion involving this method of camera
making.  I can get essentially the same thing by using:

camera {
   orthographic
   location -19*z
   up y
   right x
   look_at 0
   angle 6.67
}

The change comes from the fact that the most recent beta(s) require the
projection type to be first keyword in the statement, whereas before if
orthographic were used after look_at it used a kind of angle (or direction
length) based field of view.  So, unless a new additional orthographic type
is coded into the POV-Ray source, my example above shows what is needed for
such cameras currently.
