Description Bernd Pachur 2009-01-16 14:22:56 UTC

running povray always produces an unknown error.

a search in the povray beta test newsgroup led to the following post:

http://news.povray.org/povray.beta-test/thread/%3C49666d93$1@news.povray.org%3E/

i created a patch based on the information in this thread that solved the problem.
