Hi Martin,

I'm currently looking into

http://www.jroller.com/dgilbert/entry/jfreechart_and_jxlayer

issue and your patch. Unfortunately we're all working in parallel on 
many different project, so I'm unable to dedicate all my time for this 
task.  Currently, I did verify that your fix does solve the problem but 
need more time to go through all the details of pisces AA engine to be 
sure that everything is OK. I'll let you know about any progress on this.

Best Regards,
Alexey
