I think there's another possible interpretation here; if you consider
the gradient as defining a cone, then you could draw the value of the
final color stop where the determinant is less than zero -- this would
present a solid field 'underneath' the cone. I fear the current solution
will produce discontinuities when the final point accidentally steps
just over the radius of the circle.
