The issue is caused by the combination of the SVG background and the
border-radius. One solution can be seen in 2b8f46c6. An other solution is to
remove the CSS border completely and draw the border in the SVG instead. I once
tested this and it works fine in all browsers including Opera 12.

Personally I'm oscillating between two extremes:

* Don't reinvent the wheel. A checkbox is a checkbox. All CSS hacks (opacity:
0, empty clip regions) to force individual styles on otherwise native form
elements are horrible and should have never been invented.

* Opera 12 is dead. It's performance on sites like Twitter is horrible. People
should just stop using it. I did.
