Works fine for me. Actually I interrupted after the second frame.

Command line was 
xmegapov +D +P +H300 +W300 +L/usr/local/lib/povray-31/include
mediaphot.ini 

No .povrayrc in home directory or elsewhere.

megasrc3 compiled "out of the box" via make xwin. No modifications
to the makefile nor any sources.
gcc 2.8.1 on SunOS 5.7 (Solaris 7) on Sparc.

The scene is mostly black, so maybe you haven't waited long enough?

BTW: I think antialiasing WAS switched off already in the
     distributed ini.
