In the following scene you'll see that half the disc will disappear when
looks_like is present. If you remove the sphere all of the disc will appear.
MegaPov 0.4 renders correctly.

light_source { 0,1.5 
    looks_like { sphere { 0, 1 pigment { rgb 1 } finish { ambient 1 } } }
    translate <1,2,1>*10
}
  
camera {
   location  <1,2,3>
   look_at   0
}

sphere {0,1 pigment {rgb 1} }
disc {0,y,10 pigment {radial}}

I had something similar with this, but subsequent renders (and a new download)
worked just fine for me with MacMegaPov
