Hi everybody.
I have been contacted by a lucky user who has access to a 20x alpha
cluster running Linux, and is trying to make PvMegaPOV run on it.
He is facing some problems at parse-time (it seems to compile) which
seem strange to me:

> stad [40007] reported: texture {                          // The darker

> reported: No matching } in pigment,stad [40007] reported:  * found instead.

Has anybody tried to run Megapov (or even better PvMegaPOV) under
alpha-Linux ? Could someone provide some feedback?

TIA.
