I've noticed this too. Unfortunately, this is one of those
implementation-dependent problems. Some UAs use the VLINK color to mean
that the page has been visited, not the specific part. This makes a
certain amount of practical sense (the browser can't be certain that you
haven't been to a certain part of a document if you didn't link there
directly).
If I remember correctly, MSIE has this problem, while NN only uses the
VLINK color if the exact part has been linked to before.
