how about, for every scene file, you add a corresponding .ini file ?  there, not
only can you provide explicit paths (via 'library_path'), but also "fix" other
stuff you'd usually provide on the command-line, like antialias etc.  "added
bonus" is being able to simply write:
  $ povray myscene.ini
and done ;-).
