Hi Thomas.

Yes, I haven’t got around to removing/changing those tests yet.  These
now don’t render in response to a fix for an SVG 1.1 test case that
tests the following paragraph from the end of sectoin 7.11 of the spec:

  Keyword objectBoundingBox should not be used when the geometry of the
  applicable element has no width or no height, such as the case of a
  horizontal or vertical line, even when the line has actual thickness
  when viewed due to having a non-zero stroke width since stroke width
  is ignored for bounding box calculations. When the geometry of the
  applicable element has no width or height and objectBoundingBox is
  specified, then the given effect (e.g., a gradient or a filter) will
  be ignored.

I’ll investigate this later today, but maybe Hervé knows?
