The problem is that a 0-length dash or space is undefined. In Agg, it
causes an infinite loop (presumably because the line cursor never
moves). Saving it to a PDF file and opening it in Acrobat Reader
reveals a blank page (presumably because it's doing something smarter,
but also basically throwing up its hands). In SVG, you get a solid
line, which may or may not be the right behavior.
Given that a value of 0 doesn't make much sense anyway, I thought it
best to just disallow it. Jeffrey: Do you have a good need for this?

on May 15th, and you even added some tests for handling path
clipping. Perhaps the choice of "<=" should have been just "<"?|
