I looked at render_pgf.c. A number of issues.
(1) The code is always TeX-escaping the text.
(2) For center-aligned text, mine always shows up with anchor=west,
implying that the code never encounters case ALIGN_CENTER.
(3) There's no anchor=center for case ALIGN_CENTER.
It looks like I'll be manually editing the output .tex.
At the very least, I suggest updating the FAQ entries on the TeXification.
