Problem with dashed strokes

Question

I have a GeneralPath that I draw with two different BasicStrokes.
The two strokes are (intended to be) identical except that one is
dashed.
What I'm observing is that in some cases the two stroked outlines
do not overlap, as I'd expect them to. Are my expectations incorrect?
I'm including a simple program that demonstrates the problem.
You can find a (blown up) screen capture here:

This is occurring with (at least) the following:
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2-b28)
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.1_01-b01)
Thanks in advance.

Here's the solution:

In case that gets moved, the trick is to either turn on antialising:
  g2.setRenderingHint(
     RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING,
     RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON
  );or to set the line width to 1.01:
  BasicStroke ds = new BasicStroke( 1.01f );-David
