Hm, I think those 2 colors was just artifact. I removed Olivier's code
and we use plain glutSolidSphere/glutWireSphere routine to render it.
You can change GLDrawInteractingSphere::{glutSlices,glutStacks} to make
the sphere more rough, that should help a bit. Note also that wire
sphere are now drawn by glut, with meridians and parallels (not as a
plain circle facing the camera as it used to be), that will show
rotations clearly as well.
