Well, I actualy wanted to overlay this disk with hole on top of
another graph. I solved it by drawing several empty circles right
within each other, but this is definitely not the most elegant

I take it the obvious solution of drawing the larger circle
in the disk color and the smaller circle in the background
color doesn't appeal to you, for some reason?
