Well, maybe the following may count as "any help" :-)
1) gdk_draw_arc is about drawing (segments of) elipse, while the "replacement"
   cairo_arc is about (segments of) circles and applying some translation to
   it. For an example see: 
   http://developer.gnome.org/gtkmm-tutorial/3.0/sec-cairo-drawing-arcs.html.en
   and http://www.cairographics.org/manual/cairo-Transformations.html
2) All use cases in this file are from 0 to 360 degrees, so this paints a full
   elipse (and from now on circles).
So maybe the "easy" way out would be to rename ELMT_ARC to ELMT_ELIP and
draw a scaled filled circle and be done with it.

Ciao

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
