I recently added kernel smoothing to the econometrics package in o-f. This won't
use polygons, but it will do something similar, if that helps.

Hm, I may try that as plan B, but words like "econometrics" scare me a
little. Let me look first at the Delauney triangulation, which I think
does exactly what I want.
