There are similar what-could-it-have-been questions around some of the kpat 
card decks -- later moved into kdegames. There was a short thread about that a 
month or two ago, although i forget where.

Since these are "source" you could well consider them to fall under the source 
license of the program. You could try chasing down Anders if you want to 
double-check.

You can always add an entry in the .dep5 file describing these povray sources 
as "best effort" documentation of the license, and then SPDX tag them GPLv2.
