Steve,

Thank you for providing these fixes!  I'm sorry it took so long, but
as of revision 11192 you patch has been applied.  The example program
you provided now shows the same output for each of the plot pages,
regardless of the device used.

Part of the reasoning behind adding the plarc function was that so
many of our devices support native arc primitives.  I doubt that I
will have a chance to add device-level support, but hopefully the
plarc support in the Cairo device family will provide a reasonable
reference for others to work from.

Thank you again for the report and fix!

Hez
