For what it is worth, I had successfully compiled an older version of POVRAY
(3.5 I believe) with
gcc version 3.3 20030304 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 1666) using the -fast
flag and/or the -mpowerpc64 flag set.

That is not to say that some combination of compiler version/build and POV
source code may not break, since the data typing in the source code and
libraries was not written in a 64-bit context.
