Are the black splotches a bug in MegaPOV? They do not show up if I
comment out the "smooth" keyword, and do not show up either with
straight POV-ray and are not related to the slope-dependant texture as I
get the same result with "color rgb <1,0,0>"

It's a known problem, yes. I'm not knowledgeable as to why it is though.
Something about surface normals inverting and double illuminate maybe?
Oh yeah, there was a double illuminate "bug fix" done in version 0.5, I
looked it up but that's all I know.

Perhaps it's related to this effect?

Yup, sure does. Anyways, I've moved my mountains further back so it
doesn't show that they're not smooth.

There was discussion about this, see "Heightfield smooth problem" in
this group, started 2000-06-13.
To avoid this, add double_illumination keyword to height field.

It didn't solve it in my case. I ended up doubling the size of the
.png, moving my hf further away and using distance fog so it doesn't
look jaggy.
