Well, here's the MC-POV version I did last night anyway.  It's about twenty
hours of serial time (divided by two cores) with a single point source behind
the wall, and a blue source inside the room.  The problem with MC-POV seems to
be that some effects end up over-sampled while others are very noisy.  I
haven't figured out how to control this well, yet.  Perhaps better portal setup
would fix the problem, but at the moment I think radiosity is the horse to bet
on for most scenes.  You do get nice sharp shadows with path-tracing, though.
