Unfortunately, it's the exporter I'm using :( Blend2pov) a gpl version used to
exist but nobody has ported it to the current version of blender 2.49 without
closing the source afterwards and since it's not a script anyway but hardcoded,
there's even less chance that I could understand and change it (yet) anyway.
Maybe in a few years/months.
