Actually it's much easier then that, have a read of this:
http://www.456bereastreet.com/archive/200603/new_clearing_method_needed_for_ ie7/ It has a (one line!) fix to get the clearfix hack working correctly in IE7.

Hi Rachel, Everything looks a-ok in Safari & Flock. I dont know what to suggest, maybe instead of a float:left, use a position:absolute and then play around with margins?? Jus a thought, I may be completely way off the mark. IE should be placed in a lead container and thrown into the ocean! Does your CSS editor have an option to see what browsers are going to display badly so you dont need to load it up to check? I use Style Master on my Mac, and at the bottom of the screen it tells you whats not going to work, there is always a big red cross next to IE5 though!

In IE7, I get a large row of the background colour disappearing... this is remedied when the float:left is removed on the internal divs; however IE7 needs to be fully supported. In IE6 all of my floated divs disappeared which I have currently 'patched' with removing the floats until I have guidance from the client on how he wants to support IE6. Are these two bugs related? Any ideas on ways forward??
