Is a CodeWarrior build of the commandline version available?
Of course, everybody has gcc (if you have OSX) but in general no CodeWarrior
or IBM compiler.

A propos IBM compiler, did you try this? According to some guys it should
perform even better than CodeWarrior.

And do you know about the guy reporting 27 min on the G5 2GHz?
Can this be true?

There might be some interest in using the commandline version together with
XCode.

You can easily add language support for POVray to XCode and then you have a
much more powerful editor and development tool than the current GUI offers.
And in addition, all the power of the unix shell scripts is available.
