Hi, Thierry.  povray.bugreports is now moderated.  Subsequently, only
articles of verifiable bugs will be posted to this group - it is not a
discussion group.  Please read article in the
povray.announce.frequently-asked-questions group entitled, "Bug
reporting".

  Basically, we would like you to post your report of a possible bug
on the news server in the povray.unix group, where it will be open to
discussion and investigation by your fellow POV-Ray enthusiasts.  Part
of tracking down possible bugs is determining whether or not it can be
reproduced on other platforms.  Please do still read the mentioned
article from the previous paragraph.

  Thank you for your participation at news.povray.org.

regards,

This is already known. See thread 
  "UNIX POVRay does not exit with failure on error"
in p.programming.
