Mainly cleaned up bugs related to `#ifdef` as well as dictionaries, and
updated to new master version:

https://github.com/POV-Ray/povray/releases/tag/v3.8.0-x.tokenizer.9841908

Please give this a thorough shakedown.

the second scene I tried crashes.

Sep 18 13:05:59 crow kernel: [5793962.181497] povray380b[360882]: segfault at 8
ip 0000000000547a8c sp 00007fcd3fbfcf88 error 4 in povray380b[400000+2a0000]

the same renders fine with other versions.

where should I send/post the archive with the scene, if needed?


regards, jr.

Please do.

Various places would be ok. povray.binaries.scene-files for instance. If
you prefer for it to not be published, you can also e-mail it to
Christoph at Lipka-Koeln in beautiful Germany (de).

Just thinking, if the scene would be excessively large, maybe refrain
from posting it on one of the newsgroups, and go for the e-mail as well.

Bring it on. I want to find out what I've screwed up.


Did you test the scenes with an earlier version of the x.tokenizer
experimental branch?

For such a complex scene - with self-modifying code and shit - the
actual error scenario turned out to be almost disappointingly simple:

    #macro Foo()
    #end

    Foo()
         ^---- END OF FILE

So invoking a macro immediately at the end of a file is what breaks stuff.


Now to figure out how to fix this...

Wow, that's weird. (the only useful comment I can make!)
