[Gmsh] 2D mesh error message

[Yao-Cheng Tien]

Hi Mikhail,

It's really interesting. I followed your instructions to run my testcases
on Linux machine, and yes, they all work.
I will use Linux instead but just let you know that previous test was run
on Windows. So there might be some issues for the Windows' version.

Thanks for your instant support again!

Best,
YC
