[ODE] Cylinder collisions?

I thought a limitation of the new cylinder was that it didn't collide
with planes?

(the theory being that almost no one uses planes in anything other
than physics demos, so it was more than good enough for current use
even with that limitation)

... or was that supposed to have been fixed pre-commit?
