oocss has a nice, x-browser solution to this problem, but it requires additional markup. Basically you have containers that never have any borders, padding, or margin, and then you have skin elements that reside inside the containers that provide margin, outline, border, and padding, and then you have content markup that lives inside of that.
Luckily, CSS3 has a number of attributes that change the way calculations are performed and eliminates a number of these issues.
