[RC6] c5510-padn-000 has a fractional pixel issue

Hello,

[nightly-unstable]
http://test.csswg.org/suites/css2.1/nightly-unstable/html4/c5510-padn-000.htm

[RC6]
http://test.csswg.org/suites/css2.1/20110323/html4/c5510-padn-000.htm

While creating a reftest for c5510-padn-000, I stumbled on

line 17    .four {padding: 17.391%; background-color: yellow;}

138px mult by 0.17391 == 23.99958px
but both Chrome 16.0.912.77, Konqueror 4.7.4 and Opera 11.60 will
unexpectedly truncate that value to 23px! So, the last yellow rectangle
will not have the same offsetheight of the other yellow rectangles in
those 2 browsers. It will be 56px tall and not 58px as expected by the
test author.

Right now, I do not have at hand or in mind a proposal, suggestion for
this test.
