That's from the POV-ray licence, the full text is available at
www.povray.org.
Does the same apply to all Ldraw tools? Note that POV-ray is more than
just an "Ldraw tool".

In this case, its from the LDraw license.  If the same text occurs in the
POV license, it was lifted by the LDraw license preparer (Steve?).

(shakes head, points finger at Terry)

It should apply to all LDraw tools, meaning....it should apply to the parts
library, which is utilized by third party tools.

You'd think so.  But it doesn't.  The LDraw 0.27 license, strictly
speaking, only applies to the parts library included with LDraw 0.27.
There still isn't a license for the LDraw.org Parts Library.

Other programs have their own licenses, which usually don't address the
issue of what you can do with the images you create with the specific
tool.
