As Bugzilla refuses to let me upload a testcase to it system I put this testcase to:

Confirming on build 2001042608 Linux

It looks like the cells themselves are not maintaining correct height, ie. the
image positioning and cell background are correct but the height of the cell
itself is not carried across the row.

I can reproduce the bug on Win98 using Win32 build 20014042820.

When you reload the page, the location where the problem occured is not the same.
In other words, you cannot exactly reproduce the number of cells having
incorrect height.

Provided a testcase demonstrating the problem.
The testcase needs a GIF to work with.  Get the little GIF from the attachment

Changing summary since the DUPs show that it doesn't have anything to do with
the image/bg in particular.
Adding keywords.

Changing summary to "lose", as the reporter likely intended (formerly "loose").
