That should be working in CVS now.

This was done in CVS some time ago (comment 2)

This one is more difficult. GenomeDiagram uses a two step system - draw then
write, where draw creates the ReportLab drawing object, and write saves it to a
file. I'm going to leave this for another day...
Marking bug as fixed.
