The official version of POV-Ray 3.5 provides the best possible performance
for AMD processors as well as Intel processors. There is no need for some
special version.

Well, it uses the same compiler as the official version, however, incidently
this version has been build six days after Intel released a new version of
its compiler ... thus, it is hardly surprising that the code performs better
in general.  It also isn't said this is a plain, unmodified version of
POV-Ray.  There is no povlegal.doc, no readme, no nothing, to explain what
was changed.
