Description

The current line offset algorithm used in line symbol layers is prone to extreme jagged spikes and other rendering errors. This could be improved by implementing changes like those in this mapnik pull request:
https://github.com/mapnik/mapnik/pull/1269/files

Or by implementing a similar routine to that used by PostGIS' ST_OffsetCurve function.
