AnyLink Drop Down Menu Doc Type Flicker Bug in Firefox

Using Firefox 1.0.1 on either Mac or PC, hover over the 'Web Design' link while looking at the top of the page. There is a flicker of the DHTML menu. Only happens on first hover, reload the page to see it again.

From what I can tell this is because of the doctype. This causes flicker:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en">

This does not:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>

No flicker example: http://www.munzamedia.co.uk/ttri_site/index.htm

Must have been fixed in FF1.0.4 or be so imperceptable as to avoid my notice on several attempts (each with reload).
