Test case to reproduce

The easiest way to understand this bug is to read the attached HTML and then
render it.

The problematic effect is that when some tags are closed and others aren't, the
text appears to get sized relative to the previous element, rather than
absolutely. The result in the attachment example and at the URL given, which is
where I found it in the wild, text quickly blows up to huge proportions.
Neither IE nor Firefox do this.
