Dear prof. Remacle, prof. Geuzaine,

 thank you for the fixed version. I was using gmsh compiled in August 2013 and 
after the remark of prof. Remacle, I updated my sources from svn and  
recompiled. I still have problem with both ruled and transfinite surface when 
using the original geo file.

Best regards,

Martin Vymazal
