Doesn't look like it, as playing with 'hasLayout' triggers seem to
trigger even more IE bugs.

Looks more like IE/win (all versions) has a "stray margin" problem.

The "border fixes it" is a clue, although IE/win in particular has
several bugs that can be affected by borders.

I can't nail the exact cause for this IE behavior, but one working fix
is to add...

.tablinks ul {padding-bottom: 1px;}

...which is the second clue since paddings will break "stray margins"
same as borders do. That fix works in IE6 and 7, and leaves no visible
traces in any browsers.

So it might be a unique IE/win version of the standardized "collapsing
margins"...

...or I just got lost in someone else's CSS :-)
