Ну, в принципе, два варианта, почти одинаковых.

<div style="width: 200px; height: 100px; background: #ff9; overflow: auto;">
	<div style="float: left">
		<div style="height: 25px; background: #f99;"></div>
		<div style="height: 25px; background: #99f;">text_text_text_text_text_text_text_text_text_text_text_text_text_text_text_text</div>
	</div>
</div>

<div style="width: 200px; height: 100px; background: #ff9; overflow: auto;">
	<div style="display: inline-block">
		<div style="height: 25px; background: #f99;"></div>
		<div style="height: 25px; background: #99f;">text_text_text_text_text_text_text_text_text_text_text_text_text_text_text_text</div>
	</div>
</div>

Для IE6 вместо [var]inline: block[var] ставим zoom: 1
