I can demonstrate this with the reference implementation mentioned above: http://last24tech.com/forum.php

If you look at the source you will see that it first includes
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css.php?styleid=2&amp;langid=1&amp;d=1321553 939&amp;td=ltr&amp;sheet=forumbits.css,forumhome.c ss,widgets.css,sidebar.css,options.css,tagcloud.cs s" />

This is from the regular template. Then, just before the IE6 Tag, there is this include, and I think it is coming from the mod. Notice that the order is somewhat different but the files are identical.
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css.php?styleid=2&amp;langid=1&amp;d=1321553 939&amp;td=ltr&amp;sheet=sidebar.css,forumbits.css ,forumhome.css,tagcloud.css,widgets.css,options.cs s" />

I think this should be fixed.

1. I will look into that

2. Please Correct me if 'm wrong: the browsers are smart enough to not download same file again it will use the cached one. This is used for backward compatibility for vb.
