157127 - links within Italicized text are sometimes drawn incorrectly.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 156545

(Core :: Layout, defect)

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.1a) Gecko/20020611
BuildID:    2002061104

When first loading a page that has links in a section of italicized text, the
link text often overwrites the containing text, at least if it wraps around to
the next line.  (I'm not exactly sure of the criteria.)  Resizing the window
fixes the problem, and it seems like it only happens upon loading the page (not
when reloading), but perhaps it's only when the text lies on certain boundaries,
and I'm just not able to get the sizing right.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
Load a page with a link inside italicized text.  The particular page I provided
can show the problem in the lines that say "This text refers to the VHS tape
edition", where "VHS tape" is a link.

Actual Results:  The word VHS was written over top of "This" at the end of a line.

Expected Results:  The text should have wrapped around to the next line.
