It claims support for "version 3" which probably means 3.0, so no macros
or media.  I haven't tried too hard to get it working, but the docs do 
seem to indicate that it only works with a certain version of some library,
and I seem to recall that PCCTS was a bear to get working.

Great things are happening with upcoming versions of POV, though, so 
we shouldn't get too bogged down in all of this.  Remember, this is
one of the problems Chris Young said we'd be looking at.
