In case you also want to distribute that application, you should check
POV-Ray's licence. It is considered non-free by current standards (like
Debian's) and IIRC, the reason had something to do with distribution of
modified versions. Which is what your approach would be: Bisecting the
parser away and tying your application to POV-Ray by directly using the
internal interface.

This is one of the reasons I am waiting for Version 4.0.
