(from moray3.3) povray hangs on all (and any) parse errors

in moray - scene settings -> includes -> scene comments box add the
following

*/ randomgibberish}{}{{{} /*

save scene, shrink moray window down so you can see the povray window and
press render.

the random gibberish can be anything that would normally cause pov to issue
a parse error, pov goes clunk, and causes moray to become unresponsive
aswell.

I assume this is a problem with communication between POV and Moray.  Most
likely it is a GUI-Extension bug.

It appears to be limited to Moray's GUI Extension, since I couldn't
reproduce the problem when rendering from TextureView.
