I was in the middle of a long render (radiosity, photons, reflection
and refraction) and the power went off. Argh! Anyway, when it came
back I wanted to continue the render but got a fatal message along the
lines of "Cannot read bmp magic number."

Argh! I *hate* power outrages!

What was even stranger, I sighed and ditched the "+c" option and still
POV did a continued trace, although it clearly said "Continued trace:
off" in the message pane.

FWIW, POV 3.5b7 Win98 SE, K6III/400, 128 RAM, bmp
