1.1F2 test shapes-polygon-03-t.svg problem

Hi All,

	We have a problem with the test(s) 'shapes-polygon-02-t.svg' and
by implication the test 'shapes-polygon-03-t.svg'.

	A minor issue is that 'shapes-polygon-02-t.svg' as a test exists
in Tiny 1.2 and 1.1F2 with different content.

The Tiny 1.2 test (using embed) is here: http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/Test/20080912/htmlEmbedHarness/shapes-polygon-02-t.html

The 1.1F2 test is here:

http://dev.w3.org/SVG/profiles/1.1F2/test/harness/htmlObjectMiniApproved/shapes-polygon-02-t.html

They are completely different tests (agreed that they refer to different specs. but
shouldn't we avoid this sort of aliasing in the test suites)?

Anyway, more to the point 'shapes-polygon-02-t.svg' in Tiny is approved and
conflicts completely with the test 'shapes-polygon-03-t.svg' in the full suite.

Both tests check that a polygon/polyline detects an odd number of points and
handles the error in some way.

The Full test (03-t) assumes that the polygon/line is drawn up to the error.
The Tiny test (02-t) assumes that the polygon is not drawn at all from the error.

We can't have it both ways.

We changed our implementation to make the full test pass and the integration
server went bananas since a number of Tiny tests started to fail, 02-t being
one of them.

Either the Tiny tests get unapproved, or the full test changed. The inconsistency
is a bug.
