Cool process!  I think I found a solution for you:

  #declare Ifun=
  function{
    pigment{
      image_map{
        png "pp2"
      }
      warp{repeat y flip y} //<---add these two lines
      warp{repeat x flip x} //<-/

      translate -.5
      scale <image_width,image_height,1>*.5
    }
  }

this repeats the image in the function and flips it in the x and y
directions, that way there isn't any abrupt stop to the image used in the
function which is the problem you were having.  The function was creating an
edge at the edges of the image itself.  The image used in the function now
continues smoothly beyond the borders of your final scene, eliminating this
effect.

oops, the *0.5 isn't part of the solution, just used it for testing it out
and forgot to remove it.  Just add the two lines suggested.

Thanks!
I think your solution will work for what I want to do. But I think it only
removes the edges at the edges caused by the distance(the red value) and not
the ones caused by different normals. Perhaps this would be visible when a
sphere or something like that is at the border of the image.

Too bad pattern functions only have access to the evaluation point, and 
not the ray origin and direction, surface normal, etc. Of course, you 
would still have to render the image several times to get all that 
information into image files...but it would be useful in many other 
cases. Interesting trick you used to get it from this scene...
