It did complain. The checking for this function has failed... Sorry, i 
express myself wrong.

The resulting config.log file was sent to your email address

After "make install" i tried to render some scenes with default command 
line parameter:
	Example: POVRAY +Iscene.pov +Oscene.tga +FT +W160 +H200 +V -D +X

The default povray.ini in $HOME/.povray/3.6 wasn't used -> p.ex. 
colors.inc not found

With following command line the render was successful (for Megapov 1.1, 
the same with vanilla povay 3.6.1):

$ MEGAPOV $HOME/.povray/povray.ini +Ibear.pov +Otest.tga +FT +W640 +H480 
+V -D
+X +L/usr/local/share/megapov-1.1\include

I think, this was a problem of my fresh cygwin installation and not of 
povray itself. 
Or is this a problem of "make install"?
