 I'm still getting garbage characters. I've synced both libgdiplus and
 System.Drawing and applied your patch.
 Did the garbage characters go away on your box?
 
 Your patch certainly looks right, the zero-terminator was not aligned.
 There must be yet another bug.

+Jordi, your patch won't fix the problem (Jackson and I already tried 
+that). I have a larger patch lying around for gdiplus, which fixes 
+the bad termination, but also replaces the (wrong) utf8_to_utf16 
+conversion with utf8_to_ucs2 conversion. MS' unicode APIs deal with 
+UCS2, not UTF16. However, the problem is not fixed by this. I am 
+working on it.
