Generating high dynamic range output from POV-Ray is not possible
without quite intensive modifications since POV-Ray clips colors soon
after rendering and this prevents usable HDR output.
Next MegaPOV will contain support for the RADIANCE hdr format.

Note the GPL is not compatible to the POV-Ray licence. You can for sure
publish your patch under GPL but no one will be allowed to distribute it
as either complete souce or binary -> it will be quite unusable in
practice.
