Sure there is.
I.e. 
Graphics.DrawString(const WCHAR*, INT, const Font*, const PointF, const Brush*)

But it seems at least *parts* of it aren't implemented in wine.
At very least namespacing seems broken.

That's assuming I'd be willing to install the whole toolchain under Windows
(and that's assuming it would be an option for me in the first place).

With 6ab04040e52465e77558a067309e8a54bdc0f32c regression being clear, somebody
does need to test it with Windows, but, as I said, I'm unsure if C++ won't be
needed to show it.
