If you build with ode.dll   dInfinity would not exported from dll
because of static declaration, I think. So, if you include cylinder -
file in your project it would not work  as  dInfinity has wrong value.

  I am not sure I understand this problem. But I think one contact
  point might be the cause.

Cylinder - Ray is Olivier Michel's work. But as far as I know it works
as it should.
