I think that happens because of how cairo maps coordinates. You have to shift some coordinates by 0.5px
depending on the line width. The first question here explains it better than i can:
http://cairographics.org/FAQ ( btw, i guess i'm a 'pixels are little squares' person :) )

I already had a patch for that somewhere, I'll bring it up to date and post it.
