It seems related, but kind of flipped on its head -- this page is 
documenting the familiar bug in IE (and earlier Opera) of floats moving 
up higher than previous floats. The bug I was looking at, on the other 
hand, was about static content not moving high enough -- seemingly 
over-aggressive clearing.

I can confirm it works on IE6 and IE7b2.  Thanks so much Ingo!  I 
thought it would be you to fix it. :-)
