IE8 Image Size Bug Breaks Google Maps, Even in EmulateIE7 Mode

Google Maps currently does not work on IE8 Beta 1. Even in the "EmulateIE7" mode of IE8 it does not work completely: most of the UI works OK, but the pan/zoom controls and markers don't show up on the map. It appears this is because of a bug in IE8 (in both IE8 mode and EmulateIE7 mode) where the size of Image objects is multiplied by 100:


I hope this gets fixed in IE8 Beta 2 (due out in less than 2 weeks).
