Except in the wonderful world of RepRap, wherein they're now
(contemplating?) dual-extruder "G-Code" with multiple numeric values
after the E axis to mix / simultaneously extrude multiple materials:

http://reprap.org/wiki/G-code#M160:_Number_of_mixed_materials

The E axis must then absorb a linear "distance" of filament, plus the
mix fractions for each material.

The RepRap dialect seems to be diverging fairly rapidly from what the
LinuxCNC parser understands; in particular, their myriad M codes look
like a problem.
