To write a POV-Ray script that could read Poser .CR2 files?

Impossible with the current version of POV-Ray. POV-Ray scripts can only
read comma separated data.

What you could do is to write an external program that would read
through the CR2 file and generate something that a POV script could
read. You'd probably also want to have something that would convert the
associated geometry files to POV mesh2 objects whilst preserving the
"actor" information.

If what you want to do is use POV-Ray to render Poser scenes then you 
can use PoseRay (http://mysite.verizon.net/sfg0000/)

Version 3.9 is coming soon.
