Label style in PieChart?

Hello,

I'm using Mathematica 6.0.3 on OSX 10.5. In a PieChart, is it possible
to control the label font size and family? I routinely control this for
'FrameLabel' with ListPLot. But in the following, adding
'LabelStyle -> Directive[12, FontFamily -> "Helvetica"]',  does not
change the '21.7%' label, PieLabelStyle is not valid, PieStyle does
not accept font information, and I have found nothing information in
the Help system or on the web for this.

pct = 21.7

pieLab = StringJoin[ToString[pct], "%"]

PieChart[{pct, 100 - pct}, PieLabels -> {pieLab, ""},
PieStyle -> {Directive[Darker[Blue], Opacity[0.4]], Directive[Gray,
Opacity[0.1]]}, ImageSize -> 200]

Thank you -

G
