 The pfGeoSet has to have a pfGeoState directly attached to it.
 pfGeoSet::setGState(pfGeoState *), if it does not, it will not go
 in a bin.

 Note that you can create your own bin, using pfChannel::setBinOrder(bin, order)
 and give that bin an order greater than PFSORT_TRANSP_BIN_ORDER (1), and
 setDrawBin() to that bin.
