The answer to the question is "Yes": you have a 5px margin on your map
div. I suspect that putting #map { margin: 0px } in your CSS will fix
your offset. This is a bug in the way IE handles CSS, which we have not
worked around in our code. This is covered by #817 (or at least, it's
the same issue as #817, even if it isn't explicitly discussed).
