The implementation of Rectangle.intersection and
javax.swing.SwingUtilities.computeIntersection was changed in JDK1.2.2C to return
a (0,0,0,0) rectangle instead of a bogus result if the intersection is empty -
a bugfix for 4118972 (which was surprisingly closed as not a bug).
However, the spec was not updated to mention this.
This change caused a JCK1.2a regression:
  api/java_awt/Rectangle/descriptions.html#intersection16
The spec should be updated to clarify the handling of non-intersecting rectangles.
The JCK test cannot be updated until the complete specification is provided.
