Can you please explain how it should be styled? (i.e., attach a screenshot of the right behavior under Windows).

So what's the problem, exactly?  The rendering is exactly what I would expect given those styles for a <div>, right?  The fact that you don't see it on Windows is the only odd thing here; it should be happening everywhere.

For some reason, I'm unable to reproduce this in another XP. But on my computer I'm able to reproduce this in 3 different profiles, including on a clean profile using nightly build.
Attached is the screenshot of what I'm seeing under the "problematic" XP.

I guess the issue is on under Linux but Windows XP then. Though, that's weird you can't reproduce than on other Windows XP.

Right. Any thoughts what can cause this problem?

I see this same issue under Windows Server 2008 R2 with the classic Windows theme and I've seen it on Windows 7 with the standard theme.
