Stumbled across this little oddity. Make of it what you will. 

I had a browser window open to an article on news.com. For whatever reason (I 
forget now), I switched the skin from Classic to Modern in another window 
(although it doesn't matter which skin transition it is, or whether it is in 
the same window or not).

After the skin switch, I noticed that all of the text in the news.com page had 
increased in size. I narrowed it down to this simple test case (yes, the markup 
is a little bogus, but anyways...)

<html>
<head>
<!-- <base href="http://news.com.com/2008-1082-817522.html"> -->
<style>
  body, .a2 {
    font-family: sans-serif;
    font-size: small;
  }
</style>
</head>
<body>

<table border>
  <tr>
    <td>
      <span class="a2">
      <p>
        Java inventor James Gosling says he isn't losing much sleep 
        over Microsoft these days, despite the software giant's effort
        to stem Java's popularity with its own Java-like language.
      </span>
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>

</body>
</html>
I should note: this is on win2k with a trunk build pulled Jan 17 2am PST.
Mmmmm.  ReResolve across "special" frames.  You're ... telling ... me ... that
... ... this didn't crash?  Woohoo! :-)
