Summary: TriMesh Colours go to the wrong faces

Initial Comment:
Quesa 1.6d18
OS used: Windows XP (not tested on Mac)

This bug affects cube shaped TriMeshes with 8 vertices 
which specify a colour attribute per face.

I believe that the described behaviour occurs because 
the model has >1 faces referencing the same vertex.


Behaviour:
The following strange behaviour was observed:

Setting Attribute 0 controls faces 0,4,5
Setting Attribute 1 controls face 1
Setting Attribute 2 controls faces 2,6,7,8,9,10
Setting Attribute 3 controls faces 3,11
Setting Attributes 4..11 has no visual effect

The same model renders correctly under QD3D - 
attribute n controls face n for 0<=n<12.


Workaround:
An effective workaround is to build the cube with 
duplicate vertices such that no vertex is shared by two 
faces.

Example trimesh included as a 3DMF.
