Description

A follow-up on the recent discovery from @puzzlepaint, just to keep track on things.

I think there may also be a bug where the connectPoint function adds a triangle in a place which is designated as a gap by the triangulation function, and then the ffn_/sfn_ are not updated correctly there, but I'm not sure and I don't have a fix for that.

Research direction

Review the referenced pull request #1879, then locate connectPoint in the gp3 triangulation code. Investigate whether it adds a triangle in a designated gap and leaves ffn_/sfn_ inconsistent. Done means the behavior is confirmed or ruled out and, if confirmed, corrected with suitable verification.
