SVG 1.1SE - does the elliptical arc command re-position the "current point"?

In creating a closed shape that gets filled, I'm wondering if an elliptical arc path command "a" or "A" moves the current point to where the arc ends.
It 'appears' to be the case that the current point is not moved by the IE and Firefox implementations, in that the interior fill is happening with respect to the starting point of the elliptical arc, not its ending point.
The spec is not clear on the current point in this case. For Bezier curves, and lines, the spec is clear that the final coordinate becomes the new current point.
