In mesh2, the textures are listed within the mesh definition :
 texture_list {
  2,
  texture { T_1}
  texture { T_2}
 }
It doesn't accept material{} instead of texture{}.
In a regular mesh statement, you can use material{} and it does work
properly (media makes nice ghostly Poser figures).
In fact, I came upon this while trying to uv-map a bottle mesh, as I needed
an ior. For the time being, the workaround is to put the ior in the finish
statement.
However the problem is more complex than I thought, because uv-mapping media
or ior doesn't make sense. I still have to test what happens in a
multi-textured mesh2 with several ior values...
