Ah ha - ok worked out what it was. I had based our Text markers on the Tooltip Overlay example http://gmaps-samples-flash.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/demos/TooltipOverlayDemo/TooltipOverlayDemo.html
The example places the tooltips into PANE_FLOAT which i was doing as well however it seems that, if you put overlays into that layer, then zoom breaks. I changed our markers to go on the PANE_MARKER layer and it works fine now. Not sure if this is a constant problem or just if you try to put things into that pane during map initialization or what. Should i file this as a bug?
