Summary: ExpectedException.expectMessage ignored if empty parameter

Initial Comment:
The method ExpectedException.expectMessage in JUnit 4.7 does not work as expected if an empty string is passed.

@Rule
 ExpectedException thrown = ExpectedException.none();

@Test //that should have failed
public void test() {
    thrown.expect(RuntimeException.class);
    thrown.expectMessage("");
    throw new RuntimeException("some text");
}

@Test //that actually fails
public void test() {
    thrown.expect(RuntimeException.class);
    thrown.expectMessage("bad text");
    throw new RuntimeException("some text");
}
