I think this may be a regression -- I'm fairly sure that at one point we had added code to dither gradients to reduce the appearance of banding.
It seems I was thinking of this patch:

...which did help gradient rendering a little bit, but simply my using cleaner math rather than dithering.
Any remaining improvement is going to have to be done in the renderer, computing the gradients in higher precision, then dithering down to 32-bit RGBA.
