I have updated it now, here are the changes:
---
;;    Added Insert menu, it uses the directory structure of the winpov
;;           insert menu.
;;    Moved the toolbar icons out to separate xpm-files.
;;    Added some missing keyword expansions
;;    Fixed so that box, cylinder... has their own face, object-face,
;;            removed unused faces
;;    Cleaned up the code and removed unused parts.
;;    It works in versions 21, can't test in 20, font-lock is borked for me.

If you experience problems please let me know, and if you are able to use
it in Emacs20 I want to know that too.

Just thought I'd note - when I tried to byte-compile pov-mode.el, I got the 
error "Variable binding depth exceeds max-specpdl-size", which I resolved 
by adding the line '(setq max-specpdl-size 1000000)' to my .emacs file 
(don't ask me what this means - I just found it on google).

The toolbar uses "~/lib/emacs/view.xpm" and "~lib/emacs/render.xpm" which
only works if pov-mode is installed into that dir.  I'm not sure if that
could be fixed easily, but at least there should be a variable for
defining a different location.

I've noted (and fixed) this error when interpreting the code, but since I
don't bytecompile (I use the same pov-mode.el for emacs and xemacs) I
never realised that bytecompiling would be affected too. I'll see if I can
get this fixed somehow.

Emacs has this variable set ridicusly low, around 300, Xemacs has it at
1000. My fix is to see if it's <1000 then set it too 1000. I wonder how to
fix it properly for bytecompiling as well...

There, a new version is uploaded, should work now, at least it does for
me...
And there are no other "lib/emacs" in the file :)
