Right, looks like I have to post an url then:

You'll note that #navigation li has margin-top: 4px;
In Opera, nothing else, just Opera, the #navigation li also has a 4px bottom
margin - it echoes the margin-top (hence Opera mirror margins bug).
Removing margin-top: 4px removes the bottom margin as well. Setting the
bottom margin to 0 has no effect.
