Okey-doke.

The problem is with the primitive being used. I used the 1-4con3.dat file,
the translation of which is improperly written by L3P. Presumably, any part
using this primitive will render incorrectly. Currently, there's only one:
6267.dat, the windscreen 2 x 12 x 4.
I don't know if any other primitives have this problem. Maybe 1-4con4.dat (it
was added at the same time as 1-4con3.dat).
