[Gmsh] problem 3D transfinite algorithm

[Christophe Geuzaine]

Hi Danny,

You specified the transfinite interpolation corners in an incompatible way between the surfaces and the volumes. For simple surfaces (with 3/4 vertices) you actually don't have to specify them by hand: here's your file, simplified:
