Argh... I got confused here... it really can be confusing!

In the test, the horizontal margins (100px; block start margin and block 
end margin) of the child (which is the <p>) are margin-collapsing with 
the div#vert-rl-wrapper's margin-left and margin-right and no where is 
there an indication in the spec that such margin-collapsing could happen 
or that it should happen. Example 14 is something else, is a particular 
case.

This is not established by the spec. Too soon to tell.

Sorry about my previous posted message.
