[ODE] Inconsistent depth return for dGeomRay

[Shamyl Zakariya]

I'll experiment, since I'd *like* to have a trimesh environment instead 
of just a bunch of boxes and cylinders on a plane.

So far I've had no success with ray to trimesh intersection -- for what 
it's worth, my trimesh is centered only on the xy not on z.

Perhaps I should update to ODE CVS?
