	I would be very surprised otherwise  :-)

	Yes, this is exactly what I meant. Unified source. No redundancy.
Archive provided in different formats (zip, rar, tar.gz, tar.bz2, ...)
instead of platform-specific. Same filename for all as a big advantage  :o)

	In one word: consistency
	(here I'm not talking about the povray internal code, just how
it is provided with respect to platform-specificity).

	For instance I note that povwin-3.5 contains source for all the
supporting library (zlib, png, tiff, jpeg) while others (unix) don't.
