I gathered by the commit dates that that was not what you wanted. "I'll 
just tag this 2 week old branch/commit instead of the one that has the 
fixes and stuff I just committed"

Weird that my local git repo refused to move that tag.  But this worked:

rm -rf povray && git clone https://github.com/POV-Ray/povray.git && cd 
povray && git checkout v3.7.1-beta.3 && cd unix && ./prebuild.sh && cd 
.. && ./configure COMPILED_BY="Dick Balaska <dic### [at] buckosoftcom>" && 
make && cp unix/povray ~/bin/povray371.beta.3

It passes my smoke tests on Windows and Linux.  I will let it go live on 
my farm tomorrow when I can keep an eye on it for a bit. (Between 40 
minutes to 2 hours before it kicks in and if it goes south, it takes a 
minute to create 1000s of bad frames that may be painful to remove.)
