I haven't looked at your sources but have you tried increasing your
max_trace_level? The default of 5 is not enough for scenes with transparent
objects.

I have also read somewhere on these groups that version 3.6 of POV-Ray has a bug
in the radiosity implementation regarding max_trace_level, so you might want to
try the 3.7 beta (or MCPov) if increasing it doesn't work.


Hope this helps.
