[OpenLayers-Users] createRegularPolygon 'circle' radius units?

Hmmm...now I am even more confused!  Those 'road squares' containing and
around that plotted circle are supposed to be 1 mile per side, and the
circle is not as large as they are.  I first noticed this when I plotted the
circle in a view of my own home town -- where I knew the distances better --
but the example plot shows it just as well.

The other indirect evidence that I was using was that the same circles
plotted in Google maps were larger i.e. not the same.  

Perhaps I am making some sort of very silly mistake...?
