floating block in paragraph causes incorrect line break

bmesuere
I'm using floating span tags to add (Tufte-style) margin notes to a text.

This works ok in browsers, but Prince incorrectly adds a line break on the place where the span was in the paragraph.
Example:
Chrome:


Prince (note the break after undetermined):


The css used for the sidenotes is:
position: relative;
display: block;
float: left;
margin-left: -200px;
width: 165px;
text-align: right;
clear: both;

Dropping the display:block for the span doesn't produce line breaks.
