This is a bug i've been fighting against for some time now. It is relatively simple: when font-sizes are set to relative units (em or pertentage) the element wich contain text (in this case it is an anchor) render with inconstant height, with variations of 1px, sometimes more 1 pixel other times less. And it doesnt happen in any other browsers (that use diferent rendering engines). It is easy to notice this bug with the example i show below:

This screenshots were taken in Firefox for PC.

I have tested this in Internet Explorer, Opera 7 and 8, Safari and no problems were found. I just found this behaviour in Firefox.

It is a know bug in Gecko based browsers

(with a work around mentioned)
and the technical explanation

The better news: I don't see any problem with your file in the most recent nightly build of Firefox. Firefox 1.0 does suffer from it. Another work around that has been mentioned on this list in the past is the use of an background image to simulate borders
