Marcos, you have this as a pdfwrite problem, but it seems from the latest
regression report to be the same (or nearly so) for rendering, is this really
just pdfwrite ?

testdiff.py 20100204 differences from baseline (91 differences)

Admittedly there are two more in the pdfwrite tests, but other than that they
are the same set.
