This is standard behavior in 2D and AWT ( and anything else in Java
Graphics as far as I know. ) It's called "the way it is." ;-) Take a look
at the Graphics and Graphics2D API documentation. The behavior of outlines,
fills and lines can be surprising. Also look at Graphics.drawline() and
note "Draws a line, using the current color, BETWEEN the points (x1, y1) and
(x2, y2) in this graphics context's coordinate system." This behavior
should be the same on all platforms.
