Talking about that, and although it is hard to tell if it is the source
of POV-Ray's current problem, there was a significant change with
CarbonLib verion 1.6 in the way CarbonLib handles re-exporting imported
System APIs. From "CarbonLib 1.6 Tech Note":
" Previous versions of CarbonLib weak-linked against all of the system
libraries that provided APIs which were re-exported from CarbonLib.
CarbonLib 1.6 uses a new lazy loading system for many of these
libraries; instead of weak-linking the library, CarbonLib provides a
glue function that loads the library when an API from the library is
first called. This provides a significant reduction in memory usage in
applications that do not use all of the lazily loaded libraries, and
also a significant improvement in application launch time, especially on
older hardware.
NOTE: the lazy loading feature causes a significant change in how
applications should test for the availability of APIs. Because CarbonLib
is now providing glue for APIs that were previously weak-linked, the
t-vectors exported from CarbonLib for these APIs will be non-NULL even
on system software that does not have the library in question. As
always, we recommend using Gestalt to check for the presence of a system
software library. Some libraries do not have a Gestalt selector; in
these cases, you may need to use GetSharedLibrary to check for the
presence of the library."

Ok, someone gave me an URL listing all the changes from one to the other.
As for my problem, well, I guess it has to do with the queue.
Thanks!

This seems to be the problem I am having where I just downloaded the
program, tried to render but it failed.
I have 9.1 (so no X), are there any older versions I can download that work
on 9.1?

Get it anyway: It does work (well, except that it expires tomorrow) on
9.0.4 and later, also 9.2.2 is strongly recommended.
