One thing that I came across the other day is that if you
have two copies of an include file, one in your current dir
(the directory that the .POV file is in) and another version
of the inc file in the include directory, then POV will use
the file that is in the same dir as the .POV file.  

I discovered this by making changes on an include file in a
text editor and saving the changes, nothing that I seemed to
do was having any effect on the object, finally I decided to
have a look around my HD to see if I had another copy of the
inc file and there it was, in the same directory as my .POV
file, I deleted it and the problem went away.  

Hope this helps.
