I don't have such a file, but I wouldn't have expected that. Anyway, 
I've implemented the intersection code now. I should not however that 
this is *not* a true BoundingBox, its the media sizes for each page.

In order to find the true BoundingBox for the document (and for each 
page) we would need to run the bbox device to determine the real 
bounding box (and intersect it with the media request anyway, presumably 
in case there are off-page objects)
