Cool. Is IlmImf lib statically linked? Just noticed povwin.exe is twice 
as large than in 3.5.

The half module also uses a 256K lookup table to store half-to-float 
conversions... not sure how much that would impact CPU's data cache 
during rendering (if POV is outputting to the format as it renders), but 
if it does it's easy to override the behavior to not use the table.
