From the docs, section 5.1.2  Using INI Files:

Note: although the term 'INI file' is used by POV-Ray, this was implemented
before the widespread acceptance of Microsoft Windows, and while POV-Ray's
INI files are almost identical to those of Windows, there are some minor
differences (the foremost being that it is legal to have multiple instances
of the same item in a section). INI files are used on all platform versions
of POV-Ray, not just on the Windows platform

P.S. Ingo, that note is missing a period at the end. :-)
