Update:

It seems that the bug is KMS related, not Plymouth. After testing with other distros as well, it turns out that upto Kernel 2.6.33 has this issue, but on 2.6.34, which is used by Fedora, this issue occurs in Fedora only. Distros such as openSUSE and others, including using a self-compiled 2.6.34 in Ubuntu do not have this issue.

Was "fixed" for me by installing the proprietary FGLRX drivers. Don't know whether the issue was in the "radeon" driver, or in the KMS code as installing FGLRX disabled KMS and now everything is working fine with the default Lucid kernel.
