This seems to be due to Pango, as is assumed do to the timing, since it was
enabled default around the beginning of March. If you run:

> MOZ_DISABLE_PANGO=1 firefox

you can view all the MathML sites correctly (albeit with that annoying Symbol
dialog, i.e., #133709). A ye olde post here:

http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-i18n-list/2003-February/msg00042.html

seems to say that Pango and MathML (Mango?) don't play nicely. Another out
there says that Blizzard was working on a corrolary to this problem:

So, I guess you can't have both worlds right now. I suppose a "Disable Pango if
you want to read math" statement is needed in rather BOLD letters at Moz/Firefox
Fedora pages/release notes.
