Yeah, I've just copied the folder into the system and all works fine.

Thanks!

Is there any new information on this problem?  I encounter the same crash
with the latest version of OS X.  In contrast, MegaPOV 1.2.1 runs fine, a
confusing UI, not quite as fast as expected, but it runs.

Make sure you have the *new* universal binary MegaPOV 1.2.1.
At this time this is the *fastes* povray version for any intel based Mac
and G5.
If it is not as fast as expected, the official version is going to
disappoint you even more ;-)

This problem only seems to exist for a few users of Apple PCs. As the
problem is caused by Apple's software emulator, it is beyond the control of
POV-Ray. The alternative is to get a Apple PowerMac G5 as those work without
problems.
