hmm, I have 3.6.1 apparently

I checked my settings, they were identical and did give those different
results, but when I removed +ua from my settings, 3.5 and 3.6 gave the same
result.

weirdness! :)

I get the same result using that setting. You should
be sure to identify your settings and the full version
next time. I know I always miss something too, so
don't take that suggestion harshly. Just trying to
help. Have a great day!

ok, anybody else?  A non-windows user if possible? :)

Don't worry, I don't :)  I just thought, since I used exactly the same
settings, it doesn't matter what the settings are.  Guess I was wrong :-/
sorry for that

Anyway, the settings I used, apart from the default settings: +fn +ua +sp8
+ep4, using POV-Ray for windows v3.5 and V3.6.1

I get pretty identical images for 3.5, 3.6 and 3.6.1 when using the 
default settings.

Using +UA, however, I get the effect you describe, i.e. the highlight in 
3.6 and 3.6.1 looks different.

System: Gentoo Linux 2.4.25, Official POV compiles

Oh, yes, most of the time he is helpful, but, well, not always very friendly :-/

Anyway, Thorsten, if I insulted you, I'm sorry, I was a little on the edge :-/
