I've just created a much simpler illustration of the problem:
http://myplace.walthamforest.gov.uk/chrome/pentagon.htm. I'm convinced
now that this is a bug, because in this example I lifted the KML
directly from http://code.google.com/apis/kml/documentation/kml_tut.html
and just added a PolyStyle element.

I just assumed VML because the API documentation makes you add the XML
namespace for VML to your HTML tag. Whatever part of WebKit is causing
the problem, I hope they fix it quickly!
