This is a known limitation of the win9x gdi which shines through the
implementation of gtk. In fact you are able to create such lines
but the line state isn't drawn correctly. The only feasible work-arounds
are using the antialized renderer (with it's own limitations) or
switching the OS version. The gdi of Win NT4/2K is much less limited.

Maybe this one should be added to the FAQ?
