  Two possible solutions:

1) Develop a complicated algorithm in SDL which checks for the intersection
   of cylinders and which skips creating those cylinders which intersect
   with existing ones.

2) Since there are only a few intersecting cylinders, make a manual exception
   list in the form of hard-coded loop index values (in other words, when
   the loop counter reaches such a value, the coordinates of the cylinder
   are calculated as normal, but the cylinder itself will not be
   instantiated). You could use an array for this.
