When specifiying margins for children of a FIELDSET they collapse to nothing.
Opera and IE both behave as expected.

If you replace the FIELDSET tag with DIV the page renders correctly.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Use this HTML:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
	<head>
		<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
		<title>Bug Test</title>
	</head>
	
	<body>
		<fieldset>
			<h1 style="margin:0.5em 0 2em 0"><textarea cols="40"
rows="5">Test</textarea></h1>
		</fieldset>
		<fieldset>
			<h1 style="margin:0.5em 0 2em 0"><textarea cols="40"
rows="5">Test</textarea></h1>
		</fieldset>
		<fieldset>
			<h1 style="margin:0.5em 0 2em 0"><textarea cols="40"
rows="5">Test</textarea></h1>
		</fieldset>
	</body>
</html>
Actual Results:

Yes - its similar but that bug document margin-top. This is all margins for any
block tag inside a FIELDSET.

It's basically the same issue as bug 205732, which is now fixed in current branch and trunk builds.
