Yep, and see the comment why this is there. It should _in theory_ be
trivial to filter out those empty polygons during pdf export, just
that (last time I tried), layers above miraculously split things up in
a funny way already.

First port of call for that these days would be the vcl metafile
processor in drawinglayer I guess.

P.S.: please Cc me for prompt answers. Too many lists. ;)
