Twitter Bootstrap does not play well with Firefox

I am using Twitter bootstrap on a MeteorJS app. When I run it on Firefox, I got many errors like:

Expected declaration but found '*'. Skipped to next declaration.
*margin-left: 62.28677941443899%;
bootstrap...db5283e (line 311, col 6)

In Bootstrap, I have:

 .row-fluid .offset4 {
margin-left: 36.75213675213675%;
*margin-left: 36.645753773413354%;
}

I would like to know why this happens and I can avoid this warning.

Or, if you really wanted to pass CSS verification in most major browsers, and you'd have a weekend to spare, you could write a separate IE stylesheet.

I wonder whether the folks at bootstrap have already though of that?

In the CSS the line with the asterisk at the beginning is saying that for IE7 and below use this rule.

It's a hack which is only understood by IE7 and below.

I wouldn't worry about the error as it shows as an error on all bootstrap official CSS files and won't do any harm afaik.
