Maps: PolyStyleOptions when setting stroke style fails

I found that
   Polygon polygon= new Polygon(points, "red", 5, 1, "white", 0);
   map.addOverlay(polygon);
works, but
  Polygon polygon = new Polygon(points);
   map.addOverlay(polygon);
   PolyStyleOptions style = PolyStyleOptions.newInstance("red", 5,
1);
   polygon.setStrokeStyle(style);
does not (appended the complete EntryPoint).
I am using gwt 1.5.3 and google gwt-maps 1.0.3
Am I missing something?

P.S.: It is a real joy working with com.google.gwt.maps, thanks for
making this possible.

I was able to reproduce the problem.  I changed the demo slightly to create 2
polygons in one map as there are problems with using polygons/polylines in 
multiple
maps on some versions of the Maps API.

In Linux hosted mode, I see 2 blue triangles - the color settings aren't having 
an
effect at all.  In FF3 on Linux, I see a red triangle, and I bumped the opacity
setting, it works too.  I changed the color of the second triangle to "green" 
and it
doesn't show at all.  

I did a small test to see that properties in PolyStyleOptions were being set
correctly.   I played around with Maps API versions too.  The next step I'll 
try is
to try to reproduce this in JavaScript.

I was able to reproduce this in JavaScript.  The workaround is to not use the
Polygon(LatLng[]) constructor, but to instead always specify color and line 
weight.

Fixed in recent version of the JavaScript Maps API.
