	This is a problem with GCC, not POV-Ray.  I have faced it myself
(though when compiling the Zlib included in the POV-Ray distro) trying
to compile with gcc-3.3.4.  According to GCC bugzilla*, this internal
compiler error (aka ICE) seems to occur in the 3.3 series on the AMD64,
at least this 3.3.4 release.

	OTOH, POV-Ray compiles fine with the GCC 3.4.x series.  Moreover
the later supports the k8/opteron compiler flags, which should result in
a faster POV-Ray binary (also the 3.3.x series usually produce slightly
slower code on other platforms).  I recommand you install GCC 3.4.1 (or
the newest 3.4.2) and try again compiling POV-Ray with it -- works for me.

	- NC
