Oops! I was totally wrong here, and you were absolutely correct. I was outputting the colors like < 128, 128, 128 > . I forgot that PovRay colors are 0.0-1.0 instead of 0.255. It should have been like <0.5, 0.5, 0.5> .
So all of the colors were super-saturated. Here are examples
Before: http://troi.hous.es3.titan.com/~rjamison/inkscape/files/ispov.png
After: http://troi.hous.es3.titan.com/~rjamison/inkscape/files/ispov2.png
Now here is a BIG difference :
Before: http://troi.hous.es3.titan.com/~rjamison/inkscape/files/povtux.png After: http://troi.hous.es3.titan.com/~rjamison/inkscape/files/povtux2.png
Fixed.

Keep in mind that only a part of the light is ambient in that scene. The rest is reflected or is specular. So some things will be lighter, others darker. If you adjust the finish to turn ambient up and the others down, the colors will match the original, but it will look bad & unreal.
