flows #maintext 'after' the end of #subsection!

Here's the dummy page I'm working on to create the CSS:

If anyone can help here, I'd be very grateful, have been staring at a
 screen for a week now and am losing the will to live! ;-)

Ok, I have no "smart" solution to this one, but IE behaves better if you
make a change in the source-order - like so:

<div id="content">
  <div id="subsection"></div>
  <div id="newsfeed"></div>
  <div id="servicelinks"></div>
  <div id="maintext"></div>
</div>
...floats first - flow later.

The above is the result of pure guess-work. Someone else may be able to
describe this particular IE-bug, and maybe provide a better solution.
