> Please take this up with the standards committee and strongly encourage them to *fix* the *spec*.  As written, it's just plain broken in a rather serious way.  As designed, it is not possible to do non-square borders with CSS3 unless you manually generate all the images in a graphics program.  That can't *possibly* be the intended behavior....

You're never going to get the images to perfectly match the border-radius curve across all browsers/implementations of border-radius. I think the expectation is that designers would build the rounding into the border-image itself in order to guarantee pixel-perfect rendering everywhere.

There have already been discussion threads on this issue on www-style, and I think it has been satisfactorily resolved. If the spec changes, we can re-open the bug, but I don't think it will.
