I don't have much in the way of an explanation, but I was also seeing this with Firefox 3.0.x when viewing iGoogle. It may have been the theme I use with iGoogle (Earth-light). However, I am unable to reproduce this today, even with your test page and Firefox 3.0.4. I had just updated my world and kernel today and also updated Firefox to 3.0.4 today (along with all other ports). I use Opera more often than Firefox on that workstation (It's not a speed demon, so Opera is much faster) so I can't say for sure when the problem really disappeared, only that it is not there today.
