Getting close :) This works:

Firefox renders this as it should, I guess. So does Opera. In Chromium,
the red text is shifted to the left, and the first character is partially
outside.

Konqueror displays it as you described. But you can change View -> View
mode (or something like that, translating from German here), it's set to
SVG component as default. When set to WebKit, it renders like Chromium
does. And with KHTML you get another weird effect, see for yourself :)
