System Information
OS X 10.9 and 10.8

Blender Version
Broken: 2.71
Worked: (optional)

Short description of error
closest_point_on_mesh gives not accurate results, found that during writing sphere filling script, i calculate radius of sphere as distance of center location and closest_point_on_mesh, and resulting spheres are intersecting with mesh.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
here is simple .blend demonstrating supposed bug, open blend, run short script and check expected nearest point and cursor location which will snap on closest_point_on_mesh result.

The author of a task can not edit it, this is a phabricator thing independent from this website, see https://secure.phabricator.com/D10012.

To add a project simply do Action -> Associate Projects (in the comment section). I'll do it, but you'll know for next time :).
