Yes. This structure contains 20 entries and warning is outputed 20
times. Number of line in warning point to line with closing bracket of
this structure.

But this is written in so called "portable" package - POV-Ray. It is
supposed to be compatible with as much as possible compilers. I'm
compiling it with DJGPP, CYGWIN, Borland C++. Official distributions
are compiled with Intel C, Visual C, Metrowerks CodeWarrior Pro 7.2.
Any other way to write this part as more portable code ?
