Except that you found no bug at all.  POV-Ray behaves as designed.  Sure,
the design is slow as hell, but that does not make it a bug, just undesired
behavior when it is given extreme settings.

IIRC you already have Windowses. As far as I remember your past posts You can
build there without learning new things.

There is no requirement to be root to compile the pov sources.  Just extract the 
files under your home directory.  If you have problems compiling it from there 
ask your admin to give you read rights to things you are missing.

Besides, unless you want to write a gui for unix, patching or improving POV 
should be relatively platform independant, so apart from learning how to type 
"make" at the prompt, you won't learn many unix things by doing it.
