You can't. You'll have to reverse it, like this...
#mainwrap, #header { width: 97%; max-width: 58.5em; }
...which will have the same effect - and can be simulated by an
IE-expression.

IE-expression will work - in the right order and without font-size
defined on the layout-carrying elements...
Example: <http://www.gunlaug.no/tos/moa_12a.html>
...you'll have to declare all font-sizes further in.

Some newly updated ones on my site.
Simulate 'px' and 'em' based 'min/max-width'...
<http://www.gunlaug.no/contents/wd_additions_14.html>
Simulate 'position: fixed' in IE/win...
