As explained in my response to JRG only the output of 0.0 is a bug.  For
details about the message and relating changes, see the thread 'beta 8' in
p.pre-beta.

No, as I noted in my previous response to JRG, there is a problem.  In short
lets just say POV-Ray does not expect any text stream outputs after
rendering is complete and it would reset the user settings prior to
releasing memory of the scene.  However, that is exactly the time when
isosurfaces check the maximum gradient and output it if necessary...
