See Cristoph's reply, but it's also worth mentioning (unless this has been
changed in 3.5) that you can't even declare valid blob components outside of a
blob - e.g.:

#declare BC1 = sphere{0,1,1}

blob{
    threshold 0.5
    object{BC1}
    sphere{0,1,1}
}

will fail on the declaration of BC1, since the extra component is only valid
within a blob statement. A macro call from within the blob could probably get
around any limitations that this seems to impose.

If this is wrong, will someone please correct it?
