Hi Alexandre,

> but it would still be nice to nail the cause of the issue.

See: http://jsfiddle.net/jorix/X77cw/ 
(after returning from a week in the mountains offline... I extracted the
code from Canvas.js to set an example of the problem without using
OpenLayers)

Try "d1" or "d2", so operates properly. 
But "d1 & d2" not!, the result should be as "d2" (not as d1+d2) :(

Regards,

Xavier
