The Win32 port is actually very nicely done.  Particularly, M-x doctor comes in
very handy for those annoying POV problems.. A transcript of an anonymous user's
session is as follows:

up!

>Oh!  Wow!  Thanks!  I hadn't realized that the camera was in a non-hollow
object!
>>Is the fact that the camera was in a non hollow object the real reason?
>Yeah!  It works now!
>>Earlier you said it is not in the output image?
