First off, this is not a bug in Vector - this also breaks Monobook and any
other skin for that matter. This is what happens when we don't validate
user-generated HTML content before merging it into more HTML.

This was caused specifically by a revision made to MediaWiki:Anoneditwarning by
a user named "The Evil IP address"

http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Anoneditwarning&oldid=37456266

This user added text which opened and did not close a span which had
class="plainlinks". Most browsers noticed this and closed it automatically upon
the closing of that span's parent container, but IE freaked out and made all
elements defined thereafter classified with "plainlinks" - which blanks the
background image and turns margins into 0. This is also why the logo did not
appear on pages which displayed the MediaWiki:Anoneditwarning content.

I've gone ahead and fixed the problem.
