[ODE] patch - position-correcting constraints

[Rodrigo Hernandez]

I'd say is a case of "I dont know what they're talking about/doesn't 
affect me at the moment/I am busy with something else" kind of thing :).

I was under the impresion that directly altering body positions was a 
big no,no, and it kind of makes sence, I mean, why use a physics library 
if you're going to bypass it in the end?... Sorry I have not been 
following this particular thread so I dont know if what I just said is 
related to the patch or not.
