Bug Description

The following drawings produce two overlapping '#', 'o' resp. 'O' per line, if aspect ratio is not 1.0:
-#-
-o-
-O-

I use aafigure 0.4 in Ubuntu Karmic.
(Although 'aafigure --version' still says 0.3)

It is an inefficiency in the rendering. Overlapping arrow heads are drawn multiple times (once for each arrow). In the example shown the circle is used as joint and should only be drawn once.

I think, just skipping one of the ghost images won't solve the problem. Then the arrow heads or circles might get drawn left or right of the middle. I would expect a symmetrical picture for --o--

@zsquareplusc: as this is a bug without a nice workaround I propose to raise its importance to medium. Please do so, if you agree.
