AMD 1,4GHz, 512 MB DDR RAM, W98, POVray 3.5 beta4

Try the following line:
#local T = function (b) {div(b,2)}
it driggers that error:

"
#local T = function (b) {div(b,2)} <----ERROR
Parse Error: Expected 'function identifier', } found instead
"

When you change div(2,b) to mod(2,b) there's no error.

The integer division function is not supported.  It is a documentation
error.
