I'm using winXP at work. I'll try on my Ubuntu system at home this weekend.
idf2vrml produces:

** Failed to read IDF data:
* C:\KiCadBuild\src\kicad\utils\idftools\idf_outlines.cpp:1206:readData():
* invalid outline: .BOARD_OUTLINE
* violation: no .END_BOARD_OUTLINE found
* file position: 282

with the attached file.
