Yes, I'm sure that's the case. Check out the webby test server (which is
running pretty close to stock TPAC code); connection info is at
http://evergreen-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=evergreen-docs:webclient.
Currently there are two items checked out to the admin user and there is no
horizontal scrolling or squished display occurring using the Quirk Tools
Screenfly with iPhone 3/4, iPhone 5, Galaxy S2, or even the Blackberry 8300.

It seems likely that the id "acct_checked_main_header" might have been
removed, or the structure of "table#acct_checked_main_header td" was
somehow disrupted; that would throw off the stock mobile CSS.

In general, this is a good reminder to check problems against a stock
version of Evergreen to ensure it's not a local issue before reporting them
as a bug (I need that reminder myself from time to time!)
