Well, I just tried to do this, and it was rejected.  I entered the
following to describe the texture of a CSG object:
texture { T_Stone9 phong 0.01 scale 0.08 }

and got the error message: 
no matching } in texture, phong found instead.

So where should I put it?
Is that what you meant by my example "fall(ing) over?"
