[Vaclav SMILAUER <eudoxos@xxxxxxxx>]

It was actually my suggestion, but Janek agreed wholeheartedly. For the 
spherical clumps, I had to recalculate mass and inertia when 
construction InteractingGeometry from GeometricalModel (Mold from Shape 
:-) ) and it is obnoxious to have to look into sources to find out that 
these two values are not used in Newton's laws (mass is used for 
gravitation, though). This change eliminates a possible inconsistency 
when the user-code does something that was not originally expected.
