Hello,

I think I have run across a problem with Ruled Surface interpolation in
Gmsh 2.6.  I have attached a file showing an exaggerated curvature on some
3-sided ruled surfaces bounded by ellipses and lines.  The file works fine
in Gmsh 2.5, but the surfaces have exaggerated curvature in Gmsh 2.6.  I
have tried a few hacks in GeoInterpolation.cpp...but there is more to do
than change GeoInterpolation.cpp back to the 2.5 version.  Something in
another file is causing issues as well and I cannot find it.

Just thought I would bring it to the attention of the community.

Thanks,

Trevor Strickler
