Steve, Thank you for the fixes! I apologize for taking so long to respond. I'm fairly certain that Qt, PS, PDF and SVG all support arc/circle primitives. They would all be nice to add, and likely fairly straightforward when one of us has the time and initiative to do so. I would love to have proper support for rotated arcs and ellipses as well, but I don't think that will happen before the 5.10.0 release. If you have time, please feel free to apply your changes. Otherwise I hope to get to this and some OCaml updates later this week or this coming weekend. I believe Hazen added plarc documentation to PLplot in Subversion, so the documentation should be available online with the next release.
