All this would be covered by the "Any attempt to obscure the fact that the

sections (the commercial and unofficial sections) in povlegal.doc.  So such
a script being distributed together with POV-Ray in form of an unofficial
version or commercial distribution would not be allowed.  Of course only
distributing the script would be legal as the user can do with POV-Ray what
he wants, even obscure the fact that he is running POV-Ray to himself, which
shouldn't be a problem...
