I thought that I made clear that the patch was highly experimental.
They didn't include highly experimental and incomplete patches to 3.5.

Uh... I didn't understand this at all. What does it help to know if
a point is inside an object or not, when you are calculating the distance
of a point from the surface of the object?
And besides, insideness test is not a problem (it's required for CSG and
perhaps some other things, and in pov3.5 they even added it to the SDL so
that you can use it in your scenes; it's the inside() function).
