Short of changing the source code, I don't think there is another way of
accomplishing it.  Why would you want to do this?  When writing gxyat I had
a bug at one point that caused those rectangles containing the labels not to
be filled. I can tell you that Brian had a good reason for doing this: it
does not look pretty, and worse, it can make the labels very difficult to
read when it intersects a continent boundary.
