[ODE] dCylinder with new collision detection system

[Olivier Michel]

Hello Konstantin,

Thanks for your fast reply. Do you mean that the zip attachment you sent 
should work with the new version of the collision detection ? If not 
what should changed so that it works ? What are those problems with Cyl 
Cyl collision ? May I help getting them fixed ?

Thanks,

-Olivier
