User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040803 Firefox/0.9.3

In http://lnx.dk/stuff/design/mozilla_bug2/left.html the text aligns to the left
even though its containing div has a "text-align: right;".  In
http://lnx.dk/stuff/design/mozilla_bug2/right.html , where I've commented on of
the two floats out, the text aligns fine to the right.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load http://lnx.dk/stuff/design/mozilla_bug2/left.html in browser

Actual Results:  
The text of the div (#c) aligned to the left.

Expected Results:  
The text of the div (#c) should have aligned to the right.

This has been tested (and found broken) in the following browsers as well;

Yep, worksforme on current trunk too.  Confirmed that this was a bug back in
1.7, but it looks like something fixed it since then.

Marking worksforme.
