[cairo] Ellipse stroke

[Ray Gardener]

Hmm. If the path structure is strictly Bezier curve segments and 
straight lines,
then the rendering issue is more general in nature, not necessarily because
arcs were appended. i.e., if one explicitly issued the corresponding 
curveto calls,
the misrender should still occur, no?
