It seems that agg and pdf have different ways to render small angles
when the join style is 'miter'. Pdf has a limit (settable in the pdf
file) beyond which it reverts to bevel-style angles, agg seems to always
do the miter join but cuts it off at some distance.

Here's a test script, and screenshots of (a part of) the agg and pdf
outputs when the join style is 'miter'.
