Has there been any progress on this bug? I've discovered a case where it causes
some pretty severe problems. If you render text to a GraphicsPath using
AddString with antialiasing, when you go to render the text using FillPath the
semi-transparent pixels all become solid and the outline kicks in. This has the
effect of making the text impossible to read.

This approach (using a GraphicsPath to draw text instead of a straight up
DrawString call) is used a lot for creating text effects like outlines.
Specifically, we're porting a GIS framework and can't get acceptable results
for the labels on the map because of this issue.
