I have designed a "wide-mouth mayonnaise jar" CSG object which looks as
good as I can get it.

Now when I go about applying an image map to one of the CSG components,
using 3.1 beta 5 for Windows, I do not see the image. Instead it comes
out black. Alpha channel transparency at least works.

I use a color of "rgbf <1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 0.9>" for all the CSG objects,
but the image map seems to reset the color to "rgbf <1.0, 1.0, 1.0,
1.0>". The option "transmit all 0.9" doesn't seem to help.

Here is the file in question:

#include "glass.inc"
#include "colors.inc"

//
// Glop jar file.
//

#declare Glop_Jar2 = difference {
   merge {

      //
      // The main body.
      //

      cylinder {
         < 0.000,  0.150, 0>,

         0.500
         texture {
            pigment {
               image_map {

                  once
               }
