Hi there, 

I've run into an issue when including <CGAL/IO/OFF_reader.h> multiple times
into my project - the linker complains of multiple definitions of
read_OFF_internal::fill_point. 

The issue is similar to this one:
http://cgal-discuss.949826.n4.nabble.com/multiple-definitions-problem-td2528193.html

Looking into the source, it seems read_OFF_internal::fill_point and
read_OFF_internal::resize are not templated or otherwise dodging the
multiple definition problem, so this makes sense.  There may be other
functions in this file with the same issue, I'm not sure. 

I can work around this by being careful with my #includes, but wanted to
bring it to your attention, since as mentioned earlier there's no existing
way to catch this automatically. 

If I encounter this problem with other files, should I also submit to this
email list? Is there a preferred way to address this issue? 

Thanks for all of your great work on this project, 
David
