Executing the following snippet of PostScript produces interestingly
symmetrical garbage outside the arc, at resolutions below 150:
	%!
	50 setlinewidth
	306 396 100 0 270 arc
	stroke
	showpage

  I've compiled it with GCC 2.1 on a Sun SS2 running SunOS 4.1.1, and
on an HP 9000/750 running HP-UX 8.05 (both running X11R5).  Sun's
bundled compiler produces the same results.  Just for fun, I also
tried it with the pbmraw driver; same thing.  Any ideas?

  Also, at most resolutions I've tried (even above 150), there are
white pixels inside the stroked area, which also appear (in different
places) under GS 2.4.1.  I presume they're related.
