Summary: 

Sometimes you can get the same effect as special rounded elements by bending
a large element yourself to fit the wok.  Be careful of breaking the element
though.  I have bent such an element and used it quite successfully for daily
wok cooking over the last 4.5 years with no problems (no cracking of porcelain
finishes, no problems with the stove, etc.).  When neccessary, the element
has been unbent (and rebent afterwards) for use with flat cookware.
