I'm not familiar with GDIFlush(), but I just had a quick glance at the msdn 
docu for it, and it appears this is only relevent when using GDI in batch 
mode, (eg, do a bunch of GDI calls and then go 'render this') - and even then 
it still isn't required. Even if this function did what you wanted, it still 
wouldn't be possible to use properly because of speed issues (eg, we only 
coerce when we have to), and so on. (the same could be said for doing a 
coerce after each GDI call).
