*No* anisotropic filtering is a surprising result, but I can confirm
that enabling the EWA algorithm significantly changes the rendering in
one test I've looked at.  Without it, you get something like a polar
rose, and with it, you get a circle (which is the expected result).

So I think we should go ahead with this.
