Well, I used Fx3 and went to the url using browser spoofing as Fx2 with
the exact same error results. So... I reckon that it just may be a Fx3
issue and/or an Fx3 and the site combination issue.

Seems that there are more issues filed regarding SVG in Fx3:

<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.0/?field.searchtext=svg&orderby=-importance&search=Search&field.status%3Alist=NEW&field.status%3Alist=INCOMPLETE_WITH_RESPONSE&field.status%3Alist=INCOMPLETE_WITHOUT_RESPONSE&field.status%3Alist=CONFIRMED&field.status%3Alist=TRIAGED&field.status%3Alist=INPROGRESS&field.status%3Alist=FIXCOMMITTED&field.assignee=&field.bug_reporter=&field.omit_dupes=on&field.has_patch=&field.has_no_package=>

vs 1 "incomplete" issue in Fx2:
