It appears that the stylesheet is a hack. It includes things that aren't
compliant and highlights this in CSS comments. For example, take the
first five lines:

pre { white-space: pre-line; } /* CSS 2.1 */
pre { word-wrap: break-word; } /* IE */
pre { white-space: -o-pre-wrap; } /* Opera */
pre { white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; } /* Gecko/Mozilla */
pre { white-space: pre-wrap; } /* CSS 2.1 */

This is supposed to trigger for whichever browser that has support for
the given property values. So, it is assumed, that if you're not in IE,
it will simply skip parsing line two.

The last error that the Jigsaw comes with is the fact that the 'color'
property can't be set to 'transparent', and this goes for CSS 2.1.

I would reconsider how important all of these are if they make some
browsers choke. The last one could simply be set to 'inherit' or 'default'.
