Just to preface:  I didn't copy and run your example, I made my own from 
scratch, just to make certain that there weren't any hard to spot 
assumptions in the code.

My code did not exhibit any clipping at all, that I could see, until at 
LEAST 22 point.  It was slightly visible on the bottom (first) 0 on the 
scale.  At 30-50 point, it was pretty unsightly.  The font mattered too, 
with some "bold" fonts not clipping at all until at least 50 point or so.

If you want my code as a base, I'll post it, but it's a little 
complicated.  I generated most of it with a GUI tool and the tool makes 
a verbose amount of code.  I think it's still readable though.
