The problem is the primitive stud*.dat files are specifying two different
colors for the same voxel (3D pixel)--the voxels are the edges are being
filled with both the edge color and the surface color. So the renderer has
to 'decide' which color to use.
Without making drastic changes in the LDraw language, there's not much that
can be done. If the edges are 'cheated' (moved slightly above the surface
so they will alway be drawn), they will appear to float above the surface
at high resolutions.
