Bug#615491: Please close this bug report
I have changed the status of the upstream bug report at
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34877 to
RESOLVED/NOTOURBUG because the issue turned out to be due to the
PLplot standard example that was generating multiple duplicated
boundaries with a last large boundary segment. Under those conditions
you get correct fills (consistent with the specified fill rule) which
look "obviously" incorrect. So the seriously obfuscated example was
at fault here and not X's fill rule implementation for the two
different fill rules. Once that PLplot standard example was fixed so
the boundaries were not duplicated and the last boundary segment was
small both the even-odd and non-zero winding rule fill rules produced
correct results for the self-intersecting boundary case that also
looked obviously correct.
Therefore, please close this bug report.
