Changes (by caesarsgrunt):

  * summary:  Admin Footer overlaps other content in Safari => Admin Footer
              overlaps other content in some browsers

Comment:

 This second patch may be better - doesn't cause scrollbars on short
 screens.

 Tested in :[[BR]]
 - Firefox,[[BR]]
 - Safari,[[BR]]
 - Opera (in which there are other bugs in the footer too, BTW),[[BR]]
 - IE 7 (Yuck. Has a horizontal scrollbar...)

 Didn't cause any problems in any of the above. Caused a slight gap below
 the content on long pages in IE, and a 75px gap in Fx - but I don't think
 these really matter.

 Try it out, people...

 Note :[[BR]]
 The whole admin CSS needs redoing really, IMO. (Help,

 It would be nice to cut out the JS which lengthens the page on short
 pages, somehow. I'll look at how Fluency does it.
