Oh, that's a nuisance.

I'd just call make-path-stencil and use the bounding box results from
that.  No need to reinvent the wheel.

While this particular wheel could likely profit from a do-over with more
of a view towards efficiency and numerical robustness, there is no point
in code duplication.
