	IIRC parapov was a patch to povray-3.50c, *not* povray-3.6.x.
	So no surprise if it doesn't work.

	You're surely getting into trouble  ;-)

	Download a copy of the povray-3.50c sources* and apply the parapov
patch on it.  I can't tell if it will work, as I didn't try it myself.
Note however that using any unofficial MPI or PVM version of povray, some
functionnalities are likely to not work as expected.
