Yeah, the css validator still has quite a few issues (ahem, it is busted…) with 
the CSS 3  color module, the CSS 3 border and backgrounds module and it also 
chokes on the Media Queries module (anything that is not in the CSS 2.1 spec is 
rejected).

As a reminder (and as a supplement to the CSS validator), the error console in 
Firefox will warn you on all syntax errors you may have made - fast way to 
catch a typo in your stylesheet.
