[RC3] background-position-202 invalid; comma not a valid separator in CSS 2.1

Hello all,

A number of browsers (except Firefox 3.6.11; I have not checked with
IE8) fail

http://test.csswg.org/suites/css2.1/20101027/html4/background-position-202.htm

because comma is being used as a syntaxical separator for
background-position values. This is invalid CSS 2.1.

Reduced testcase:
