Is there any reason why sp-ellipse.cpp uses .552 as the

I guess no reason at all, except that it was that way in Sodipodi and nobody came around to fixing it :) Patches are welcome (I think there are several places in the code using 0.552).
...and, of course, it would be preferable for the patch to define a single constant/macro someplace and use that everywhere, rather than writing out 0.55228474983079356 in a bajillion different places.
