[mapserver-users] python mapscript - creating vector symbols on the fly?

In Python mapscript, is it possible to construct a vector symbol, like a
circle, without referencing a mapfile or a symbolset file?  

Essentially, build this in code:

SYMBOL
  NAME 'circle'
  TYPE ELLIPSE
  POINTS 1 1 END
  FILLED TRUE
END

If so, a few lines of code would be greatly appreciated...

David.
