Thanks for your reply!
I'm afraid overflow:hidden (on the div; don't think it has any effect
on the img) isn't what I want, since it hides part of the img instead
of making the containing div wider.
Another thing, if

Yeah, as I mentioned in my reply to Gunlaug's solution, I might scale
the image with max-width. It won't be exactly what I want, but in this
case better than the image breaking out of the div, and probably
better than workarounds on top of workarounds.
