There seems to be some sort of asymmetry in the ellipse drawer.  From within
MacPaint, set the black pattern and toggle into FatBits mode.  Draw 3x5
pixel and 5x3 pixel filled ellipses.  One will be a rectangle and the other
will have corners chopped.  The effect is most noticeable when drawing long
narrow (3 pixels) horizontal ellipses.
