This is the same thing that was initially reported in beta 4
   http://news.povray.org/3bb4605d$1@news.povray.org

With my W98se and beta 6 it still happens under the same conditions,
namely

 When the output format is PNG
 And the render is stopped during radiosity pre-trace or while rendering 
 lines 0 to 2.

The size and speed of the image doesn't matter. If stopped before line 3
it always crashes. If stopped on or after line 3 it doesn't.
