+Cairo doesn't support path-based gradients, so don't count on a fix
+for Mono 1.2 :-(
+
+However Cairo support radial gradients which can be used as a subset
+of PathGradientBrush (see new sample). I added support this corner
+case (r60529) as it may be useful to some people, otherwise it will do
+like before, fill with the center color.
