IMHO POV thinks the objects are not visible, so doesn't render them. With the UV
flag, POV renders all objects whether visible or not, correcting the bug.

Hmm, if this bug cannot be resolved, is it possible to have POV automatically
render with "-UV" if the camera is orthographic (unless the user specifically
sets "UV")? If not, should something be added to the docs to warn users to use
"-UV" with ortho. to avoid problems (or if they experience problems)?
