re compile from source, all versions I have installed are labelled "POV-Ray v3.x
for UNIX/Linux" (in the README/INSTALL files), so cannot comment on the Windows
thing.  however, if you were to install MS Visual Studio (there's a free edition
for non-commercial use), I'm certain people here could/would offer support for
the actual compilation/procedure.
