regardless of where your pointer lands.

This occurs when a select has a width specified in the style.  I am pretty sure
I have seen this before.

I believe the key here is a scrollbar's presence _and_ the inline styling of width.

John, someone fixed this recently.  Do you have any idea which bug to DUP this
against?  Anyway, it works fine now.

The dupe is probably 108127.  Bug 130537 reported the same problem, and was 
duped against that (even though the summary is different).  Anyway, see comment 
6 there by Jesse Ruderman.

bug 108127 looks different, let's just close this one out.
