Description
ReportLab 3.6.10 seems to have made a change that is causing tests of the PDF backend to fail in a fairly fundamental way.
Typical test failure:
```
======================================================================
ERROR: test_circle (kiva.tests.test_pdf_drawing.TestPDFDrawing)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
