Raphael js does not render properly a complex svg path on ie8

Question

I am developing a interactive map in svg and it has to work properly on Ie8.

Do I have to add something to raphael, to convert svg to vml?

My code is here: http://jsfiddle.net/Wd3sh/2/

var R = Raphael('map', 500, 500);
R.setViewBox(0, 0, 185376.58, 190124.91);

var attr = {
    fill: '#6689AC',
    stroke: '#fff',
    'stroke-width': 1,
'stroke-linejoin': 'round'
};

var br = {};
br.ac = R.path('m 6610,62120 c 6786.854,4221.189 15427.704,3211.721 21897.513,8102.257 3711.038,2219.267 8970.884,3627.278 12056.487,5690.743 -1166.064,433.976 -1305.798,1388.22 -2347,1737 -302.351,372.597 -995.051,-33.245 -1061,482 -520.432,14.035 -1605.419,1235.177 -1833,1543 -1130.336,-897.569 -1848.663,202.866 -2540,1383 -662.084,192.914 -2324.89,1203.015 -2315,96 -428.874,63.787 -1483.514,-159.378 -2379,-289 -840.438,-140.907 -1851.114,142 -3087,-96 -706.209,104.999 -1551.547,1098.045 -2508,353 -1554.89,-2304.193 -876.075,-5832.349 -804,-5787 916.297,-289.291 -228.353,-1365.906 257,-1351 654.343,-399.256 1.419,-855.901 -450,-128 -660.683,491.278 -1432.163,1167.762 -2604,2122 -914.089,395.65 -3810.94,393.804 -4566,96 216.794,-906.281 -611.123,-1021.709 -514.001,-2090 -1585.828,-459.105 -2123.119,-594.79 -4341,-707 569.129,-754.866 1766.782,-1421.247 836,-2476 -182.296,-265.422 -892.5102,-1170.871 -1286,-1447 -209.6372,-941.002 -1557.154,-1133.61 -1479.1612,-2476.238 -679.1104,-726.434 -842.2323,-836.729 -451.3297,-1575.059 C 6112.2181,64949.049 5669.1219,64327.561 5934.9987,63567 5358.9518,62778.977 8139.4796,64093.796 6610,62120 z').attr(attr);
