Yes, still impossible. POSITION CC + MINFEATURESIZE AUTO will get you close. 
However, MINFEATURESIZE AUTO uses bounding box checks and doesn't intersect a 
feature geometry with its label geometry.

Subject: [mapserver-users] Still impossible to force labels inside their 
polygons?

Hi,

Is the short answer by Stephen Woodbridge "No" in the tread 
http://osgeo-org.1560.n6.nabble.com/force-labels-to-fit-in-polygons-td4549296.html
still valid?

I have been trying to label a polygon dataset with Mapserver 6.2 beta2 and some 
labels keep on falling outside their polygons.  By the way, the thread contains 
an advice that does not work for me:
" By the way, PROCESSING "LABEL_NO_CLIP=ON" will fix the label point at the 
polygon center.

Is the solution to create a new layer with point-on-surface function and label 
then this point layer?
