this was also fixed in trunk since the 5.0 but didn't make it into the
5.0 branch.
you can use the hatch symbol which is designed for this kind of symbology
SYMBOL
NAME 'hatch'
TYPE HATCH
END
and then in your style block
STYLE
SYMBOL 'hatch'
SIZE 10 # the spacing between lines in hatch
WIDTH 1 # the width of each individual hatch line
ANGLE 90 #can be any other angle to
COLOR ....
...
END
