That's a maintenance update of the good old POV-Ray 3.7.0 source code, to make
it compile on modern build environments (most notably eliminating
incompatibilities with C++11, but also with modern Automake versions on Unix,
modern Boost versions, and other some such). Those updates had been made a while
ago already, but I tagged the code in GitHub only recently.

There's also a 3.7.0.2, but I'm noticing right now that I haven't pushed the tag
to our official repository yet.

There are no corresponding official binaries, because there are no differences
in functionality to the original 3.7.0[.0].
