Overlapping planes rendering artifacts

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Set up some parallel planes or cubes in a DisplayObject3D
2. rotate the  DisplayObject 
3. Look for anomalies appearing in the rendering.  Some of the color form 
the hidden plane shows through at odd angles.

Code example below.  Screen shot attached.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I didn't expect to see rendering problems. Two straight forward parallel 
planes.  Not one that had a potion of the other plane showing through.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I scync'd again today, 10-16-08 and had the same problem.  WinXP.

Please provide any additional information below.
