hmmmm. This is my clipping plane setting:

#define NEAR_DISTANCE 0.2 // distances for near/far object culling
#define FAR_DISTANCE 20000.0 // see pfChanNearFar

...

pfChanNearFar(chan, NEAR_DISTANCE, FAR_DISTANCE);

Is that a problem?

But it shouldn't, because everything else looks normal.

Another point is that the effect occurs much more often
when I start the application using a tracking system (the user's head
will be tracked and the view will be adjusted - we use an HMD). If I start
it with mouse control, the error occurs only sporadic. I assume that this
is because the view coordintates change every frame when I use the
tracker.
