  It occurred to me that could it be that megapov, for some strange reason,
behaves differently with the adc_bailout value than pov3.1 does.
  The number of reflections and larger rendering time would indicate that,
eg. that megapov actually ignores the adc_bailout or somehow else uses
it wrongly. Perhaps some photon mapping code is messing things up?. Just
an idea.
