POV-Ray seems to apply gamma correction before anti-aliasing instead of
after. Is there any particular reason for this?
(I know it makes a small difference for most cases, but I was testing text
rendering, with the background being completely black and the text being
completely white. As you know, gamma correction doesn't affect 0 or 1; only
the values in-between.)

POV-Ray works as designed and has been discussed before. This is not a bug.

I forgot that the scene has a gamma too, but that's because I mostly deal
with assumed_gamma 1.
Anyway, what I meant to say was that the correction for display gamma should
take place after anti-aliasing, like this:
Correct for scene gamma -> Anti-alias -> Correct for display gamma
