Yes, IE got it wrong, as the 'width' acts as a 'hasLayout'[1] trigger,
making it expand the containers.

Add (as a test)...

div#content div {overflow: hidden; *overflow: visible;}

...which will make it appear as you want.

Then use the most suitable one of the properties that enforces a
'block formatting context'[2] in standard-compliant browsers, only to
the correct containers. That'll give you a match.
