I was testing it at school, at 800x600. Also, playing around more  
makes me think it's the latest post causing it.

IE7 has the same bug: if it were that it would show up there. Alas,  
for IE ≤ 7 it already has a total width of 99%: at 800px wide an 8px  
margin of error, which with only five possible widths to round (i.e.,  
a maximum of 5px of rounding errors) this makes no sense. What's  
causing this issue is something else. Regardless, decreasing the width  
by 6% from what IE already gets seems excessive.

There already is one: the HTML 5 draft one. This is treated as an  
unknown doctype everywhere and triggers standards mode as a result.
