From rom what I've figured out so far, the main two things that GDI+ gives over GDI which are useful to us are anti-aliased paths and alpha-composited primitives.
A major downside to GDI+ from my point of view is that it appears that even the "Flat" API is actually in C++ (eg., GdipCreatePath takes a GpPath **, where GpPath is a class). It's also not supported in mingw32 yet. There is a patch out there:
