Section 9.5.2 says:

  For run-in boxes, this property applies to the final block box to
  which the run-in box belongs.

What does that mean exactly?  Is the block supposed to clear whatever 
the run-in would clear (in addition to whatever the block itself 
clears)?  Or is this just saying that the block is the right block 
formatting context for the run-in's clearance?  Or something else?
