The reset_children feature was not added to 3.5, but the same effect is 
possible. Since you are using plain transformations, you can do this:


#declare TexTrans = transform {
    scale 2
    translate vnormalize(LPos-SphPos)
}

#declare Tex = texture {
    gradient vnormalize(SphPos-LPos)
    transform {TexTrans}
    texture_map {
        [0.0 Tex1 transform {TexTrans inverse}]
        [1.0 Tex2 transform {TexTrans inverse}]
    }
}

More complex textures using warps are a different matter, you would have 
to do something like:

#declare Tex = texture {
    function {
        pattern {
            gradient vnormalize(SphPos-LPos)
            scale 2
            translate vnormalize(LPos-SphPos)
            turbulence 0.5
        }
    }
    texture_map {
        [0.0 Tex1]
        [1.0 Tex2]
    }
}
