Yup, I saw that.  That's when I decided I needed to centralize the
thindraw stuff.  Lesstif shouldn't have its own copy, but neither
should the core drawing routines need to know about them.

I was thinking about making a thindraw HID that could layer itself on
top of any other hid to provide thindraw functionality.  Imagine a
thindraw EPS export :-)

That would help a lot, if you can do it.  It affects zooming and
panning too.
