Yes, I had to work around that for my reflectivity patch. An annoying
little bit of code...

  I just downloaded the g version for MS-dos, so I don't know if this will
work in all versions.

#declare Box=box{<0,0,1>,<4,4,0>
 texture {pigment{image_map { tga "Image.tga"
 map_type 0 interpolate 2} }
 scale<2,4,1> }}

#declare Box2=box{<0,0,0>,<2,10,.1>
 texture {pigment{image_map { tga "Image2.tga"
 map_type 0 interpolate 2} }
 scale<2,4,1> }}

// white back side of paper
#declare Pg=intersection{
 object{Box}
 box{<0,0,0>,<2,10,.1> pigment{White}}
}

// Image2 on back side of paper
#declare Pg=intersection{
 object{Box}
 object{Box2}
}


You can also use the Height_field this way too.
Late but, Hope this helps.
