When searching a polygon clipping by rectangle algorithm., i found this:
http://geocanvas.sourceforge.net/geoc/
here is the comment found in the file:
/* HACK CLIPPING TO WORK AROUND GDK ISSUES
* This is a temporary? optimization I hope. I may be able to remove it 
soon.*/

this was in 2004...

so i do not hope this problem disappears under Linux

The function seems usable for us.
