  pdf-file was 100% OK and contained a beautiful ellips. However, after 
  applying ppower4 to this pdf-file, the new pdf-file did still contain a
  figure but it was no longer a beautiful ellips, but somehow a very 
  bad approximation of an (crooked) ellips.

You did not mention which version of PPower4 you use.
I tried with the beta5 version and could not see any problems.

This is right. 
Currently you can only use the _same_ pageDuration for all parts of
a page with PPower4. Sorry.
