So here is what I discovered. It is something that Drupal is doing in rendering. Here is an uncomplicated html example that works fine in a .html file
<div style="position:relative">
<div style="position: absolute;top:100;">
This is a test
<input type="button" value="test" />
</div>
</div>
In Drupal, my outer div is the region, which I mark as relative positioning in the css. The inner div is a block, which I mark as absolute positioning in the css. The block appears correctly. The button, whether I create it via $mybutton=theme(button), or create it via $mybutton="<input type=button>, I have tried printing the variable from the template and inside the block, and the markup always ends up like this:
<div>
<div>
block stuff
</div>
</div>
<input>

Global variables are not necessary and should be avoided.
Does it *visually* appear outside of the enclosing divs, or are you talking strictly about the markup? The former could indicate a mere CSS error.
Consider providing a pastebin of both the preprocess and markup to help diagnose.

In D7, in template.php, I'm hooking preprocess_page and setting a $vars[] variable = theme_button.
In a block, I have this:
<?php global $signup_button; ?>
<div id="signup"><?php print $signup_button; ?></div>
The button appears in the page source outside of those enclosing divs. What am I doing wrong?
