I think that was referring to it being added to and then removed from 
the 3.1 beta, I remember something about this back on the old Compuserve 
forum.

Nathan Kopp's MegaPOV web site (http://nathan.kopp.com/patched.htm) has 
links to Linux binaries. Ken Cecka had a page for Unix/Linux, but it has 
apparently disappeared. Mark Gordon's web site has a Linux version of 
MegaPOVPlus, it is based on an older version of MegaPOV but it has the 
double_illuminate patch. A look through Google might show something, 
there are plenty of people using it under Linux.
