At the moment AGG rendering falls back to GD for text drawing. That may change 
before the
final release. So, any text you can draw with GD can also be done with AGG 
including ANGLE
FOLLOW. GD is still integral to MapServer so it is required (e.g. you have both 
libs).

Chris Schmidt put together a version of the Boston Free Map that allows you to 
toggle between
GD and AGG, http://boston.freemap.in/agg-demo.html (MS SVN is essentially 
5.0-beta2).
