Really? Hmm, maybe I'll give that a go. I've just got POV 3.1 to build with
gcc
2.4.5 (just a few minor changes to include files, but it built otherwise).

I'm just chasing a startup problem at the moment as POV dies when run with:

  INI file error.
  Bad option syntax or error opening .INI/.DEF file 'lost+found'.

.... not sure quite what the cause of that is yet. The only lost+found dir on
the machine is direct off the root (obviously), so I have no idea where POV
is picking it up as a name from!

I've just done a find in all files under /usr/local/lib/povray31 for
'lost+found' and there's no references there, so it seems to be an odd side
effect of it not being able to find *something* when trying to start.
Hmm...

cheers

Jules
