The problem is the too long version string macro POV_RAY_VERSION which is
copied into just 16 bytes of memory in function CreateSplashScreen in
SplashScreen.c. Just change the size of povVers to 32.

BTW, you can get the same crash in debug mode: Just make sure both,
"POV.PPC" and "POV.PPC-dbg", use the same compiler settings. To do so make
sure the settings in the "PPC Processor" and "Global Optimisations" tabs in
the target settings are the same.
