[CSS21] (Appendix E) Are inline-blocks "block equivalent"?

Hi,

Appendix E uses this sentence twice:
"If the element is a block, list-item, or other block equivalent"

What is a "block equivalent"? Do inline-blocks fall in that category?

I’m trying to figure out how to make sure that inline-blocks (that may 
or may not be positioned, with z-index that may or may not be 'auto') 
get their background and borders painted exactly once...

Regards,
