The divs in the page must not change when we mouse over links in one off the divs.

It only occurs in that enviroment, if I change the border of "a" element, or
change the overflow or float of "div" element, everythings works fines.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Just look at the page and mouse over one of the links in the divs.
Actual Results:  
The divs shows one over another.

Expected Results:  
Doesn't change the divs.

I can see the bug(s), using:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8a2) Gecko/2004-06-06
Firefox/0.8.0+
The flickering part of this bug is probably covered by bug 132337.

Attachment: Floating divs with different overflow, width and height properties

A different testcase with different overflow properties for the floating divs. 

And with different width/height properties.
Maybe it is useful.

Sounds like a scrollframe issue when height is auto and width is shrink-wrap,
not a float issue...

Testcases fail for me with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US;
rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050422 Firefox/1.0+ (mad flickering)
Testcases works for me with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US;
rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050428 Firefox/1.0+ (no flickering)

However, on the first testcase if you hover over the last link in each of the
lists, you get a (useless) vertical scrollbar appear. Useless in the sense that
its unscrollable.

Resolved Fixed by bug 240276 or not?

That scrollbar issue is bug 286368. And you can scroll it, in theory.
