Thanks - I hadn't noticed those... not as smooth-looking as the AGG
samples but definitely better than using the wxPaintDC directly, and
sufficient for my needs.

My paint handler now creates a dummy wxPaintDC, and then passes
the window to wxGraphicsContext::Create.

Is this the drill? Works ok on win XP but who knows...

(It might be a good idea to insert a reference to wxGraphicsContext
in the wxPaintEvent docs.)
