Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0

Browser: Firefox 1.5.x or 2.0
OS: Mac OSX 10.4

SVG Text is missing when certain positioning is applied to it's parent.
See http://ondras.praha12.net/svg/test-74px-bad.html and http://ondras.praha12.net/svg/test-73px-good.html - one displays text, one doesn't . The only difference is the 'top' css attribute!!

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open http://ondras.praha12.net/svg/test-74px-bad.html - no text is displayed (MacOS only!)
2. open http://ondras.praha12.net/svg/test-73px-good.html - text is visible

Attachment: Simple testcase

This testcase contains a pair of XHTML documents. One renders the SVG text, the other doesn't. The difference is the size of the image contained in an <div> preceding the SVG section.

For trunk builds this was probably fixed by a cairo update. Since we're not going back to fix this for Firefox 2 users will have to wait until Firefox 3. Since this works on trunk builds, closing as worksforme.
