  Transform bug in MegaPOV 0.6

In official POV-Ray (and in MegaPOV 0.5 I think) this...

transform MyTrans

...is correct, and this...

transform { MyTrans }

...will generate an error.

However, in MegaPOV 0.6 this...

transform { MyTrans }

seems to work, while this...

transform MyTrans

...craches the program!

Here's a complete example:

#declare MyTrans = transform {translate x}
sphere {
   2*z, 0.3
   pigment {color rgb 10}
   transform MyTrans
   // transform { MyTrans }
}

I use MegaPOV 0.6 for Windows.
