Something like this has never been reported before.  The output works just
fine regardless of the format you are using, so probably you are making some
mistake that is causing this.  Are you certain the folder you ask POV-Ray to
write to is not locked?  Are you certain you did not just miss the error
message for PICT output?

Apart from that, also it is unrelated, you should use the latest version,
which is 3.6.1.
