Subject: bug#67404: 30.0.50; Issue with :box face attribute
Date: Thu, 23 Nov 2023 16:23:15 +0100

Hello,

The below face with specified :box attribute can be defined and further
used without problem:

(defface test-face
  '((t
     (:box (:style released-button :line-width (3 . 0)))
     ))
  "Test face.")

(insert (propertize "XXXXX" 'face 'test-face))

However, it is not possible to apply any change to this face with
`customize-face', for example to change :line-width (3 . 0) to
:line-width (2 . 0), or to add a :foreground color, etc.  This fails
with the message "set-face-attribute: Invalid face box: :line-width,
<value>, :style, <value>", and the :box attribute is discarded.

AFAICS, :box attribute with any zero :line-width value works as
expected: the box line with zero width is not displayed.  But zero is
not considered as a valid value by `set-face-attribute' (in fact, the
internal function `internal-set-lisp-face-attribute').

For consistency, a zero :line-width value either should be accepted by
`internal-set-lisp-face-attribute', or never accepted at all.

Thanks
