The picture doesn't match your ASCII art, it kinda confuses me.
Based on your ASCII art, something like this might work:

<div id="statusBar">
  <div id="goal">
    <div id="goalMarker">77</div>
  </div>
  <div id="status">
    <div id="statusMarker">67</div> <span>10</span>
  </div>
</div>

#statusBar { width:220px; padding:2px; border:1px black solid; font-size:14px }
#goal { padding:5px 0; border:1px #333 solid; }
#goalMarker { width:180px; height:20px ;background:#ccc;text-align:center; }
#status { padding:5px 0; border:1px #333 solid; border-top:none;
text-align:center}
#statusMarker { float:left; width:160px; background:#ccc; }
#status span {background:yellow; }

This essentially is what you had, sort of?  Does it work in IE5?

SPAN, like other inline elements, will not obey the width property in
more compliant browsers (read: don't depend on it).

HTH,
