Hi Bernhard,

I'm sure you are aware of:
http://www.cgal.org/FAQ.html#inexact_NT

This intersection code is rather naive and make use of
constructions to determine the intersection. That is to
say it does check if the triangles have a common edge.

However, there are several ways to handle the issue depending
on the context you are using this code without having to resort
to exact arithmetic.

Best,

Sebastien.

PS: if you are using CGAL 4.3 there was a bug in this function fixed in
4.4 http://www.cgal.org/releases.html#release4.4


Sure, thats it. I wrote _inexact_constructions. It works now. Thank
you, Sebastien.

Best
Bernhard
