Comment (by linuxologos):

 After a dipper look, some more evidence:

 Both in WP 3.2.1 and 3.3 the "Most Used" tab in Categories meta box gets
 the ''hide-if-no-js'' class. Difference is, in WP 3.3 it matches against

 {{{
 #side-sortables .category-tabs li.hide-if-no-js {
     display: none;
 }
 }}}

 and it's hidden. Of course, it shouldn't. (Same browser window.)

 If you drag & drop (in WP 3.3) the Categories meta box from the right to
 the left (wider) column, the Most Used tab appears, because the parent div
 has now the #normal-sortables id and the earlier match doesn't apply.

 Also in WP 3.3, meta boxes which are in the right column before the screen
 layout switch (from two- to one-column) retain the #side-sortables parent
 div, which is correct, but it causes the floating problem initially
 described (another CSS problem?).

 If Category meta box is already in the left column before the screen
 layout switch, nothing changes, as expected.
