Same problem I fixed 'temp' fashion by commenting out this line;

  buffer_message (mIDE, "POV-Ray is creating another process\n") ;
  //wrapped_printf ("  %s", s) ;

Reason: During update of message windows, a critical code section causes thread
deadlock.

This is not a fix - but identifies the problem.

Not noticed any bug report in .bugreports - thought someone was going to.
