The C test program to demonstrate this issue

In developing the test for the cairo function cairo_set_tolerance(), we have
encountered the following inconsistency with the spec:

- On cairo-1.6.4 or earlier, if we use cairo_set_tolerance() to set tolerance
to a value  < 0.0002 and then call cairo_get_tolerance() to retrieve the value
of tolerance, the value returned is always equal to 0.0002.

- Additionally, on the latest cairo-1.8.6, if we set a value < 0.003906, then
the retrieved value is always equal to 0.003906.

The standard (spec) did not mention anything about this special value 0.0002 or
0.003906.

Is this a deficiency of the documentation or an implementation feature?

Included with this report is the C test program to demonstrate this issue.

Please, give us your ruling/decision.

Thank you very much for your time.
