Meaning the ie-rtl.css definitions aren't in the HTML? or that no css stylesheets are in the HTML?

Meaning that without http://drupal.org/project/unlimited_css stylesheets are not loaded (the 31 stylesheets problem)

I forgot to mention that this happens when file system is defined as 'Private', and Drupal can't compress stylesheeyts together.

you need to enable css compression and it then includes the css. although it still isnt perfect. the layout is still slightly broken...

Ouch. That's a known problem with Drupal 6 and earlier. Private files and CSS optimization are incompatible. Crap. Crap. Crap. :-p

Ok. We do need a fix for this. blargh.

Bug in the CSS optimizer, IMO, which is fixed in D7. But I'll come up with a work-around.

Nope. And I haven't thought of a work-around either. :-(

isn't http://drupal.org/project/ie_css_optimizer already a workaround? we are talking about a core bug here.

What's the consensus on this? Needs work, duplicate? Does it belong in Zen, or in core?

Yes, it is a core problem. Just search for it on the Core issue queue. What matters the most right now is that there won't be a fix for D6, nor will IE CSS Optimizer fix it. There is a patch mantained by arhak at http://drupal.org/node/572516 but it *will not be merged into D6*.

D7, however, solves it on its own.
