PS: looking at your file, the fact that this geometry could even get
meshed with the old algorithm is surprising, as we never intended for 
embedded surfaces to work...

Feel free to use the old version for now--we definitely plan to add
"real" support for embedded surfaces in the future. (Embedded curves are
already supported in Gmsh 2.0; they were not supported in 1.65.)

Cheers,

Christophe
