As the patch that got in was a result of *my* work (combined with a few hints from Vincent Povirk), it puts an odd spin on the things (and your comment).
As for why it was a regression, well obviously cause the things were working before a certain commit, where (just like in that gtk+ archive mail) somebody removed code cause it looked funny, without checking *why* it was funny.
Actually, you could argue, that the commit in question did the exact the opposite of what its message said it was supposed to do, at least in regard of GdipDrawString.
