FOUC in Firefox?

Thought this was an IE-only thing, until Firefox 3 came out

Anybody else noticing occasional FOUC [bluerobot.com] in Firefox 3? I'm not seeing it everywhere, but contrary to IE's behavior this appears to be related to using the <link> tag for the stylesheet. (I can't swear to that since I haven't spent much time studying this).

I've noticed this ever since upgrading to the first beta of Firefox 3, and it has persisted right up into RC1.

Is anybody else seeing this, or am I the only one?

Is the link in the the <head> or not? I found one bug related to FOUC:

Bug 387669 – Flash of unstyled content on this page
[bugzilla.mozilla.org...]

I've only checked the source on two sites, but for both of those, yes, the link was in the <head>. So either what I'm seeing is a different bug, or the details described for Bug 387669 aren't actually what are causing the problem.
