heh, cheated and got found out.  :-)  I did render with +w400 -- the only
change, and things appeared fine.  but checking the output image size, it's
400x600.  so I tried again, this time with +w1920, and now 3.7.0.8 too crashes:

[xcb] Unknown request in queue while dequeuing
[xcb] Most likely this is a multi-threaded client and XInitThreads has not been
called
[xcb] Aborting, sorry about that.
povray-3.7.0.8: xcb_io.c:165: dequeue_pending_request: Assertion
`!xcb_xlib_unknown_req_in_deq' failed.
Aborted
