Before I start reporting bugs related to the animation keywords I would
like to ask what is the status of animation support right now. Are those
keywords supposed to work correctly?
  For example, there's a "clock_on" used in scenes\language\vturbulence.pov
which seems to cause povray to crash. However, is it even supposed to
work properly?

there is currently no animation support (though it shouldn't crash either,
I'll look into why). apart from clock_on, the clock variables do exist and
should all be 0.

when we restore animation we'll announce it with the beta.
