You are not getting a diffraction effect, it is something else. Put 
simply, diffraction is a very complex effect to simulate, POV does not 
even try.
My best guess is that you are somehow getting a coincident surface 
effect, or are doing something else that causes precision errors. I 
can't say more without more details.
