[Gmsh] Surface embedded in volume

Hi Alessandro,

I think the reason why it doesn't work is because Surface In Volume will 
work for surfaces which are totally inside a volume. Your surface #30 is 
not, because of the lines #14 and #16 crossing surfaces #26 and #22 of 
the volume. Therefore, try to embed those lines in the surfaces first:

Line {14} In Surface {26};
Line {16} In Surface {22};

That seems to work.

Best,
Mikhail
