I didn't test it with the previous betas (I just got the machine).

The VC++ compile of the beta 9 crashes too. Actually it crashed the first
time I tried to render the scene with it... Note than a perhaps related
problem is that sometimes the editor returns a "failed to write" message on
the current scene. It seems to happen after Povray is reloaded after a
crash, but not always. The file is freed again after a few minutes.
I have a simplified version of the scene that used to crash but right now it
doesn't...

BTW, the spline bug I reported on Dec 22 is also visible on the VC++ version
(I can almost make it repeatable now). I thought first that both problems
(spline and crash) were related but they are not.

G.
