lw_dist2d_seg_seg()

int lw_dist2d_seg_seg	(	const POINT2D *	A,
		const POINT2D *	B,
		const POINT2D *	C,
		const POINT2D *	D,
		DISTPTS *	dl
	)

Finds the shortest distance between two segments.

This function is changed so it is not doing any comparison of distance but just sending every possible combination further to lw_dist2d_pt_seg

        Solving the above for r and s yields
                                (Ay-Cy)(Dx-Cx)-(Ax-Cx)(Dy-Cy)
                   r = ----------------------------- (eqn 1)
                                (Bx-Ax)(Dy-Cy)-(By-Ay)(Dx-Cx)
 
                        (Ay-Cy)(Bx-Ax)-(Ax-Cx)(By-Ay)
                s = ----------------------------- (eqn 2)
                        (Bx-Ax)(Dy-Cy)-(By-Ay)(Dx-Cx)
        Let P be the position vector of the intersection point, then
                P=A+r(B-A) or
                Px=Ax+r(Bx-Ax)
                Py=Ay+r(By-Ay)
        By examining the values of r & s, you can also determine some other limiting conditions:
                If 0<=r<=1 & 0<=s<=1, intersection exists
                r<0 or r>1 or s<0 or s>1 line segments do not intersect
                If the denominator in eqn 1 is zero, AB & CD are parallel
                If the numerator in eqn 1 is also zero, AB & CD are collinear.
