Am I right in remembering that GTK has a pixmap rotation jobby? If so,
you could write a /fairly/ simple wrapper to write the text to a temporary
1-bit pixmap (there are calls to get the expected size), rotate it, then
use it as a mask (in the GC) on the dest. pixmap to scribble a big
rectangle over.
Bit long-winded, but it'll work, and it *is* sub-routinable.
Maybe.
If so, you could post here the generic any-angle routine :-)
