I'll take a look at it when I get a chance.  I've seen this behavior but I'm
not sure what to do about it.  I'm reasonably sure it has something to do with
blit scaling behavior on windows.  The problem seems to occur whenever the
scaling factor is factional like the zoom levels you mentioned.  For some
reason wxMSW doesn't handle this properly.  I don't know if the problem lies
with wxWidgets or Windows.
