Using my country_grass2.inc (BTW, has anyone seen or heard of SamuelT.
lately?) MegaPOV 0.6 exits without crashing for no apparent reason other
than eval_pigment in the include file. I hear that there was a bug fix. I
think you added another one. :-/

We are unable to reproduce this. Could you send the sources?
Are you sure eval_pigment() is causing the problem? 
Are you sure it isn't the transform bug found in mp 0.6?

This will crash MP 0.6:

#declare Mytrans =transform { translate x }
xx {
  transform Mytrans
}

Upon closer inspection, it seems that I am using "transform Transformation",
so it might be that, but like I said, it doesn't crash, it just exits. I
haven't been able to test it alone yet, but you're probably right.
