Styling with borders, margin and padding often comes out differently on different browsers here and firefox can be iffy.
I am not sure if the firefox team interprets the standard differently to, say, IE and opera or whether it is a simple bug. I think the latter as it does not happen in every case / page. So making a stylesheet that deals with it in some cases then messes up in cases where it doesn't happen.
Or maybe everyone else got the interpretation wrong and there is a "use this thickness this way sometimes" clause to the standards.
Regardless, it is irritating when you want to support all browsers consistently.
Edit:
I don't intend to join the firefox team to learn, find and fix it.
