parse.h, line 624:

  LAST_TOKEN
#ifdef GLOBAL_PHOTONS
  GLOBAL_TOKEN,
#endif

defining GLOBAL_PHOTONS would lead to an error, it would probably be good
to place LAST_TOKEN after all #if's.

parse.cpp, line 3307 and 3408:

"triangle triangle mesh data"

should probably be:

"temporary triangle mesh data"

I have noticed this too and wondered why things like this are present at all.
Or #if 0 things.

That's not the only occurance. Look for "all all", "the the". Is this some
english construction I never met earlier or some mistake in automation ?

They are commented or disabled with #if 0 because they are not fully 
functional. They are present because they are works in progress and the 
code that is there might be useful, there would be little benefit in 
going through the source and removing them for the official release..

It's a mistake. No idea how it happened though.
