"...giving povray the -GA argument should turn off all console messages. I
tried but all messages appear on the console. Povray even tells everything
is turned off. All messages go through stderr, -GA *enabled* or not."

Try, taking care for the Ampersand:

    xterm -T DEBUGWINDOW -e tail -f ./DEBUG.txt &
    povray +GD./DEBUG.txt ./INPUT.pov

Lines in INPUT.pov like e.g.:

    #debug concat( "nHALLO SEBASTIAN: ", str(clock,0,0), "n" )

will produce their output in DEBUGWINDOW and, nearly, nothing else. Does
work for pov3.6 on SuSE9.0
