Ok, I hope this is what you mean by printouts......

Here are 17 matrices.  Each matrix is a printout of what happens to my
object's matrix when you rotate the object around the Y axis by (4096/16)
units each time.  The function I used to get these results was the one I
posted earlier except with the changes you suggested in your last posting. 
These results are different (worse) than the ones I posted before because
the normalisation code wasn't in the right place to work last time.

Ok that's it :)
The second from last one should be when it finished a full loop, I think,
but it's certainly not the same as the first matrix.  I hope this helps.
