Another testcase -- same issue?

[Simon Fraser (smfr)]

This is a LayoutState issue. Towards the end of RenderBlock::layoutBlock(), after we've popped the layout state, we're doing a repaintRectangle(). The current element has a transform, so we'd normally have disabled the layout state, but we after the pop, so we think it's ok to use the LayoutState in the repaint.

This seems to be an issue with LayoutState and transforms. This change fixes it but maybe we can do something more subtle.
