I downloaded the unix version and compiled on my Mac as described here:
http://news.povray.org/povray.macintosh/thread/%3Cweb.4e4865211f72b142975cc8f30@news.povray.org%3E/
This appears to be fine except all my renders are black, and I don't have any of
these problems:
http://wiki.povray.org/content/HowTo:Fix_unexpected_image_output
except... maybe the problem is a broken include file? Apparently the 3.6.1
distribution has include files from 3.5 in them, and they are broken and don't
work. For example stones.inc and stones2.inc give me an error.
What's going on?

In case you don't believe me, here's the scene I'm trying to render:
//#include "colors.inc"
background { color rgb<.1,.3,.3> }
camera {
location <0, 0, 0>
angle 90
look_at <0, 0, 1>
}
sphere {
<0, 0, 6>, 2
texture {
pigment { color rgb<.1, .1, .2> }
}
}
light_source { <0, 0, 0>, rgb<1.0, 1.0, 1.0>}
there should be absolutely no problems. camera is correct, looking in positive
z direction. sphere at z=6, 2 units radius, I should be able to see it. it's
sort of darkish but it should show up against the background.
light source is at the origin, and it's white light.
The render I get is just the background color -- nothing else renders.

Well I don't think it's because of the include files, as most of us are
using v3.7 release candidate versions now with those very same include
files. In 3.7 the #version directive in those includes handle them
properly. I'm running a rather lengthy render now and I'm not inclined
to stop it to test your scene, but my 1st guess is the dark-ish colors
that you are using ... gives little contrast between the background and
your test object. Try moving the light source to the left or right just
a tad, so you can cast a shadow someplace other than just behind the
test object. Also explore the finish attributes, diffuse, specular ....
etc. Casual glance at your scene source indeed looks fine. Play around a
bit with the issues I've mentioned and see if it makes a diff .... shout
if you need help. Also post an image in the appropriate news group to
give us a look at what's going on. This is a pretty good group and most
of us like lending a hand.

Your camera is inside the sphere.

I don't think so; but the "Ray->Shape Intersection test" shows no hits on the
sphere.

hey it's late (coffee has long worn off) but I don't thinks so ... the
cam and light at same place but not sphere. like he said sphere @ z=6
radius 2 = 4 units diff

Works fine for me. Rendered using:
1) Povray 3.7RC3 on an Atom N270 running Ubuntu 11.
2) Povray 3.7RC4 on a Phenom II x6 running FreeBSD 8.2.

From what I understand, OP is trying to get 3.6.1 to run properly, not
3.7RC. On a Mac.
