I think the gamma correction uses a continuous, non periodic function,
probably just a simple polynomial. The results you see are probably from
the color values being clipped and otherwise messed up by the function.

Gamma correction would have to be applied to the final result of
computing a pixel, correcting each sample wouldn't give the right
result. Antialiasing has little effect on the image, it mostly makes a
small difference in edges, so the change would be minor.
