PHP/GD Bug: imageFilledEllipse Centered on Y=0

I was drawing circles using PHP’s GD function imageFilledEllipse. I noticed that when I went to draw a circle having its center at $y=0,there would be a line missing at $y=1.

Here’s the work-around:

if( -1 <= $py && $py <= 1 ) {
  // Undocumented PHP bug when Y coordinate is zero.
  imageFilledEllipse($img,$px,$py,$X,$X,$color);
  imageFilledRectangle($img,$px-$halfX,$py-1,$px+$halfX,$py+1,$color);
} else {
  imageFilledEllipse($img,$px,$py,$X,$X,$color);
}
