Kris, this
sounds like a bug I saw in Stanza (I too am still on iOS 5). It seems to happen when the first visible element (either image or text) in the (x)html has a computed marginTop > 0 or is contained within an element whose computed marginTop > 0.
Fortunately, Stanza performs pagination in an editable javascript file (epub-function.js). I was able to fix the problem by adding a function to change marginTop in such elements to 0 and set paddingTop to original computed marginTop + computed paddingTop (usually zerp). This changes the intended page layout somewhat, since margin-top and padding-top are not equivalent; however, in most cases they functionally are. At any rate, this fixes the problem in Stanza of text falling off the bottom in all problematic books I've come across.
I don't know if this is the same problem that we're seeing in Marvin, but thought I'd throw it out there in case it is helpful.
