Right.  Lengths in Gecko are stored as integers in units that are 1/60 
of a CSS px.  The number above is about 1/120.  So things smaller than 
that would would round to 0.

It's a general problem.  You have similar issues with large values.  At 
some point, either the browser is using an infinite-precision arithmetic 
package for layout (unlikely given the performance impact) or you get 
arbitrary limitations on your values.
