For some reason beyond my understanding, IE 6 seems to believe there
is a much bigger line-height than in Firefox or Opera.
Explicitly specifying a line-height for the <li> (I used line-height:
1.3) brings all browsers in line.
(and strangely, when I resize the text - setting it to 12px or 14px,
the problem seems to vanish).

The problem can also be fixed by specifying font-size and line-height
on <body>:
body {
font-size:100%; line-height:1.3;
}
Moral of this story: don't leave IE on its own, it becomes helpless
and does all kind of weird things.
