that's exactly what I'm working on :-)
A POV-Macro reads in the model data, transforms control points (morphing 
  and/or rotating them around the joints), recalculates the tangents and 
renders bicubic patches. Most of the code is finished, you might take a 
look at

(showing an earlier version with the bone-system up'n'running)

or

http://3dimensions.dhs.org/jpatch/head.mpg
(rendered with pov-ray and morphing the control points via sdl-macros
the head model is from Anto Matkovic's head tutorial
http://www.matkovic.com/anto/ )

The code was a mess so I had to start a new version of JPatch from 
scratch some weeks ago :-(
but theese things will be (re)implemented quite soon...
