there's more than one way to read it? :-)

yes, and not really. I used 9945627 as the "baseline", then ran the same scene
with 9945666 and 9960461. all three were run "remote" on an otherwise idling
machine. as for the language construct, I can not even guess, I have never
really looked at POV-Ray sources. essentially, nested loops calling a macro
that uses inside() to trace, ie a scan of a volume.
curiously, the alpha reports the "no objects in scene" warning one line earlier
than the x.tokenizer versions.

ah, I might not be much help here, I have no code requiring earlier than 3.6,
still, I'll keep using the latest x.tokenizer as the day-to-day version.
