It should do (AIUI the RNG is seeded from the system time).  Often people
render on multi-core machines by starting several instances of MCPOV and
then averaging later, so I think it works.

The problem I see is that posting JPEG versions here will lose some of the
detail, you really need to post PNG, but my file is 1.4 MB... Anyway, here
is a JPEG version with minimum compression after 14 hours, this scene really
is a tricky beast!
