I can confirm that the wierd polygon issues does not exist on my
archlinux build, so those are indeed related to fedora and not the
commit addressing the trapez fill.
Also in that regard, Mitch confirmed directly to me that "the fedora
issues" are also existing on Fedora 21, so these issues can last for
a long time.
