Under "pair of matching braces", there are huge blanks.

A well-formed C++ program must contain a main() function and a pair of matching
braces:

< BLANK HERE >

int main()


Probably due to some errors in <div> related things.

I think that the <div class="toc2 wrapper1"> holding the gap open.

Do you consider this a bug? If so, why? 

When you speak of "some errors", how many important one are there, and
how would you characterise them?

The <pre> with the code has "clear:both" set, so it has to clear all the floats
on the left of the page (the whole left sidebar).

So the layout is correct given the CSS and markup on that page.

Note: opera and khtml both produce the same layout as Mozilla on this page, as
expected.
