You're right: IE won't find that stylesheet when 'media' is declared in
an @import rule. IE is looking for a stylesheet with a completely
different name - which of course doesn't exist. It's a bug in all
Trident[1] based browsers - including IE7 last time I checked.
Solution: don't declare 'media' on the @import rule. Wrap the entire
stylesheet-content in an '@media print'[2] rule instead.
