Hi All,

time to release an updated LGEO library. Here is a list of changes since the
last update:

As far as I can tell, 3829 is broken.  The LDraw version of this file is just a
reference to the steering wheel stand (3829a.dat) and the wheel itself
(3829b.dat).  The LGEO version of 3829 is just the stand, and lg_3829a is just
an alias for lg_3829.  So the wheel is missing when using LGEO.  This is the
result I get using LDView for the POV export, not L3P, but looking at the LGEO
files, I'm assuming that L3P will produce the same results.  Given the presumed
popularity of this part, I'm not sure, though.

Apparently somebody decided to rename this part to 3928c01.dat.  They then also
decided that 3829.dat should just be the base.  That is how things look on the
tracker right now.  However, anyone using the official parts library will be
using 3829 as the steering wheel/stand composite part.  Personally, I think this
sets a horrible precedent in the parts library, but I'm not going to fight it.
