IE9 bug in css background-repeat with display inline elements

Question

I tried to apply a background with no-repeat set to "inline" elements, on IE9, if the text spans more than one line the image appears on all lines, did anyone face this problem yet? does anyone have a solution?

.text {background: url(../images/ibullet.png) no-repeat left top;
    display: inline; /* or inline-block */
     }

<span class="text">try me on multiple lines</span>

IE9 isn't final yet, the release candidate was outed today. If you think there is a bug, then the solution is to report it so that it can be fixed for the final release.

It's not advised to use work arounds in pre-release builds of browsers. You can report the bug by clicking the Tools (Alt+X) -> Send Feedback.
