Hmm... See my message/work-around in moray.win.
I think my work-around there might also help with lathes and prisms? I don't
think I tried, but it should work the same as for any CSG object...
Anyway, the conversion is only intended for a group of objects? Not a whole
scene? because that would not make really sense as the end result would be
the same, whether traced in Moray or POV-Ray...
