Just to reitterate, there is a really high quality project to render
MathML called gtkMathview. I've downloaded it and started to look at it.
It written in C++ and has Graphics Context abstraction layer just like
Abi. This has been used to render MathML to both a gtk graphics context
and Postscript. I think it would be rather easy to make a wrapper for
Abi's XP Graphics class and hey presto we have a platform independent
Math renderer.
The main author is Luca Padovani
Luca Padovani <luca.padovani@cs.unibo.it>. The home page is:

This marvelous piece of software is GPL'd and requires libxml2. We should
definately maintain libxml2 support for post 1.0 Abi.
Cheers
Martin
