You could just stop POV-Ray from printing messages with -GA
  If you are rendering a long animation, you usually don't need to see
the scene statistics for anything.

Aha, yup. I'll try that. Would it switch debug messages
(that my particle-system outputs) off too?
(That was a rherotical question, I'll see for myself...
Its not too hard to test, if you know what I mean)

Had a look at it. Thanks!

Another idea I had...

If this message window stream in Windows is the cause
of some errors (memory problems, to be precise),
how about putting a note in this in the
docs? It would be best to make this behaviour very
obvious, unless someone wants to hear someone really
upset talking about how he tried to raytrace a 5000
(for 200 secs) animation and ran into some problems...
