Circles won't export to wmf

[Andreas Klemm]

I draw circles in Inkscape and try to export the drwing as wmf. All the drawn elements are exported - even arcs - save the circles. If they are converted to paths they export ok.
Inkscape 0.48.2 r9819 on winxp sp3 current Intel P4 2x3GHz

AFAICT upstream bug (or missing support for elliptical arc path commands [1]) in UniConvertor 1.1.5 (-> not a bug in Inkscape itself).

Tested and reproduced with SVG files from the SVG 1.1 test suite, converting SVG to WMF on the command line with Uniconvertor 1.1.5 (Python 2.7) on OS X 10.7.5 [2]:

Cubic and quadratic bezier curves are converted correctly to WMF by UniConvertor, but SVG paths with elliptical arcs not.

[2] SVG->WMF conversion done directly with UniConvertor 1.1.5 on the command line; WMF content verified with
- LibreOffice 4.0,
- Inkscape 0.48.4+Uniconvertor 1.1.5
- Inkscape trunk branch with internal EMF/WMF support <lp:~inkscape.dev/inkscape/lp988601>

Setting status to confirmed to be consistent with the other uniconvertor reports.
I'm wondering how we could improve our report handling in that case. Mark everything as Invalid for Inkscape? Affect all the reports to Uniconvertor in Ubuntu (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-uniconvertor)?...

Tested again on Windows 7.
- Python crashes with 0.48.2 and 0.48.5.
- file exported correctly with 0.91.
