DESCRIPTION: HRs and floaters don't mix well.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
* load http://www.fas.harvard.edu/~dbaron/css/test/linebox1
ACTUAL RESULTS:
* HR near the bottom of the page is centered, and goes halfway across the
floater
EXPECTED RESULTS:
* it shouldn't go over the floater - it should be the same size, but against
the right edge
DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY ON:
* Linux, apprunner, 1999-11-11-08-M12
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
See historical bug 4615 and bug 4286.

Agreed. Marking as verified duplicate of 18754.
re-opening because it's not really a dup, it's a related but slightly different
issue. the other bug is about quirks-mode layout. the test case in this bug is
in strict mode

marking invalid. HR's are block elements, and in strict mode they get laid out
just like any other block.
let me know if you think we should do otherwise in strict mode, which would mean
treating HR's as blocks in most cases, but as inlines if they are impacted by
floaters. I don't think the CSS spec wants to get into a situation where it
forces style changes based on geometry.
