Pulling together the relevant parts of the CSS spec:
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/visudet.html#propdef-height
"<percentage> Specifies a percentage height. The percentage is calculated with respect to the height of the generated box's containing block."

http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/visudet.html#containing-block-details
"If the element has 'position: absolute', the containing block is established by the nearest ancestor with a 'position' of 'absolute', 'relative' or 'fixed', in the following way:
In the case that the ancestor is an inline element (...)
Otherwise, the containing block is formed by the padding edge of the ancestor."

So yes, this is a bug.
