Aha, then there is really a factor 1000 between X3D and BRL-CAD, i.e. m in mm.

So you haven't touched g-x3d.c yet. It looks like g-x3d.c uses an
obsolete variant of the tessellation algorithm. This would mean you
had to rewrite it. However, your main focus should be to prepare a
complete and clean patch for your X3D import including the
documentation, e.g. a manual page.
