Attached SVG file has a path with a cursor: hover style rule.  Try hovering over
various parts of the path and note that the cursor often changes to the default
when it shouldn't.  This doesn't just apply to hover rules; other event
processing fails as well, such as mouse clicks (try clicking on the object, an
onclick handler should print "click" but doesn't always).

Reproducible: Always

i can confirm this bug.
a possible workaround is to also set pointer-events: visibleFill.

This now works for me in current trunk builds. Please try a build from http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk/ if you wish to test for yourself.
