No, it is already.  Said so somewhere else but this dual thread thing has
confused me as to where exactly.
But that is what it looks a lot like anyway, if not any lack of
max_trace_level.
If I could find that scene file to see if maybe the CSG has two textures, a
combined refractive one and non-refractive perhaps, then maybe it could be
figured out.  Just guessing though.
