To begin with, you can not read Z buffer values, using lrectread(), when using
multisampling. What it means is that you have to turn pfAntialias to OFF for it
to work.
Second, there is a bug in the RealityEngine graphics - zclear() always clears
the Z buffer to a constant value, regardless of the values of getgconfig() or
getgdesc().

Regards,
Ran
