An object with a one dimensional boudingBox (height or width = 0) shouldn't be stroked with a gradient, but instead use a fallback color or ignore stroke at all. And a line doesn't have a height. We use black instead of ignoring the stroke, because of compatibillity reasons to older Firefox and Opera browsers.

Sorry, I'm not sure where to find this paragraph atm. Maybe the following test can help you more: http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/Test/20061213/htmlObjectHarness/full-pservers-grad-17-b.html The gradient is not drawn on all objetcs, since some of them have a one dimensional objectBoundingBox (width or height == 0).
