There seems to be an error in 2357.dat (or in LDGLite). It looks like the winding has been swapped for some of the sides, so the wrong surfaces are drawn. This is only visible in some special cases. When you render the example below with LDGLite (...) (24 years ago, 8-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dev)
