Actually, I've found an easier (for me) method.

I took my complex Bozo perlin, and converted it into a function with the
function{pigment{...}} command in MegaPov. Now that it's a function, I can use
it like any other pigment type, with pigment{function{...}}. A little
roundabout, but at least I understand how it works.

Looks pretty good too!
