I'm trying to drag my employer's GWT-driven website into standards
mode and have run into an odd bug that I was hoping someone else has
seen.

I'm using the HTML5 doctype. There's a legacy quasi reset at the top
of the stylesheet:

html {
  height: 100%;
}
html,body,div,pre,form,fieldset,input,th,td {
        margin: 0;
        padding: 0;
        font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
        font-size: 11px;
}

img,body,html {
        border: 0;
}

Gecko and Webkit respect this and correctly show the site without the
2px gap around the outside. IE8 in Quirks Mode does as well. IE8 in
Standards Mode, though... there's a 2px gap. It shows in layout tab as
part of width -- body is 4px narrower than html. I've tried setting
these inline, and that doesn't make a difference.

I cannot figure out how to fix this. Anyone encountered this? Any ideas?
