I think it only happens if you don't provide a URI for the DTD.

I saw that one earlier today somewhere...I'll look for it.

This might be it:

http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42525

I suppose the workaround would be to write your doctype like so:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"
            "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">
