double_illuminate still works for backward compatibility. Backside 
illumination is slightly different, in that it also takes into account 
radiosity & photons illumination, while double_illuminate only supports 
classic light sources. And of course backside illumination allows you to 
control the strength of front- and backside illumination separately, 
while double_illuminate gives the same brightness for illumination from 
either sides.
