Since I develop on Win2K, use POV-Ray, and Moray 3.3, it should be the
most stable configuration.

Note that the versions of POV-Ray I use tend to vary (including
Mega-POV), so it might be specific to something in 3.1g.

If this is still a recurring problem, send me the .mdl file and I can
check it out.
