Thanks Remy for verifying. I was just about to do that, when I discovered what the real issue was - this is one for the old mental database.
In Safari, if you have a relatively positioned element with overflow hidden, and you have no width declared, anchor tags will cease to function that follow that element in the structure of the page. I had some weird stuff happening in Safari because of this bug. So it looked like wrapping the anchor was not working, when in fact it was, but it just wasn't working because of Safari. Three hours of my life I'll never get back!
