Have you tried including a DOCTYPE with your document?
The above is valid HTML 4.0 Transitional : 

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"
        "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">

But it is /not/ valid HTML 4.0 Strict :

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0//EN"
        "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/strict.dtd">

I don't know for sure how khtml treats documents without DOCTYPE as opposed
to those with one, and I don't have anything except rc6 to test with (which
renders both your versions fine). But I guess it's worth a try to add a
correct DOCTYPE.
