An entire web page recognized as edit field

In the following brazilian web page, NVDA treats links and normal text as being edit fields and keeps activating focus mode. Browse mode loads correctly, but after navigating past the initial page contents, the problem begins:

Hi, using Internet Explorer 8.0.6001.18702. Here are some log information containing the page load, some key presses from me and respective feedback. Notice: my NVDA is in Brazilian Portuguese, and some words containing accented characters are not well rendered:

Hello.
I am having the same problem in some websites especially blogs.
I think the problem probably has to do with a spessifick wordpress theme but i don't understand why in internet explorer and not in firefox.
Again using windows xp with internet explorer 8.
Have a look at http://www.quartzprojects.co.uk/
Mine doesn't go in focus mode but it says edit every time i go to a different line untill the first entry starts.

Found two more sites where the problem occurs as well. BTW, I have changed to Windows 7 plus Internet Explorer 9.0 64 bits, and the problem goes on. Here are the addresses:

Duplicate #2584 reports yet another instance of this: http://www.clavierproductions.com/

This is due to Internet Explorer stupidity. If a document is displayed in standards mode (using the <!doctype html> directive) and an ARIA role is set on a node other than div or span, IE exposes this to MSAA as an editable text field. We'll need to override this explicitly in NVDA.

As a matter of interest, trying this last web site in webbie and it does not show an issue, though of course IE itself will.

Should be fixed in 4059aa4. Though I might let someone else confirm this one before closing.
