This has been adjusted and readjusted, to be at a reasonable location around the player's belt area. Right now, it is rare to clip anything, but unless it is moved to be inside the player, it will probably always clip in one situation or another. And if it is moved to be inside the player, then the player shadow is not only off by default, but becomes completely unusable. Obviously this is undesirable since some players will want (and may possibly even fix in the future) the player shadow.

Edit: In fact our first tester wanted the shadow, so any adjustments to lantern position should be made carefully, and with g_showplayershadow turned on.

I have reduced the importance of this issue, as it seems to happen *very* rarely.

It's also virtually impossible to fix. The player model itself is allowed to clip into things while mantling, so this is more or less unavoidable.

Agreed. I'd forgotten I'd even reported this. I see it now and again and it just feels like the light from the lantern at the belt is obscured by furniture or the body pressed against a wall as it would to some extent in real life.
