I've noticed it back in 4.0, but it's still present in 7.0.1 and a trivial search failed to find a duplicate.

Noticed on lkml.org.
All of the post links present on the page have tooltips on mouseover.
The tooltips work correctly, as long as the link is only one line long.
If it's longer, the tooltip shows correctly on the first line of the link.
However, if mouse hovers over the second line, tooltip "blinks" - that is it's created and immediately destroyed.

And also reproduced on Firefox3.6,23 to Nightly/10.0a1

Opera11.51 and Google Chrome14.0.835.202 works as expected.
