Simple reproduction

Chrome Mac sometimes forces layout before the referenced stylesheets have been loaded.
On the Google Docs demo page, this reveals an odd layout behaviour:
Link dimensions still zero after child element changes from block to inline-block.
I've attached a simple reproduction that doesn't reply on the race condition.

>From the downstream bug report (http://crbug.com/103423):
Chrome Version       : 15.0.874.106
URLs (if applicable) : http://docs.google.com/demo
OS version               : 10.6.8

Behavior in Firefox 7.x (if applicable): Works fine
Behavior in Chrome for Linux: Works fine

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Launch a fresh copy of Chrome
2. Open http://docs.google.com/demo

What is the expected result?

The "Sign In" link and "Get started" button should appear on the top row, across from the Google logo.

What happens instead?

Instead, they are displaced, seemingly wrapped to the next line (see screenshot). Reloading the page fixes the issue, and it does not come back until Chrome is quit, and then restarted (closing and reopening the window is not sufficient). This doesn't happen in Firefox 7, or Chrome on Linux.
