That's not the point - you won't even be able to convert a simple scene:

#declare fn_rad=
   function {
     pattern { granite }
   }

#declare Obj=box{-1,1}
#declare Norm=<0,0,0>;
#declare Start=<1.5,2,1>;
#declare Pos=trace(Obj, Start, -Start, Norm );

sphere { Pos, fn_rad(Pos.x, Pos.y, Pos.z) }
