Did Firefox 8.0 break @font-face support?

I've checked this on a variety of machines and Chrome / IE 8 / Opera / Safari all seem to handle the @font-Face css style fine but Firefox is defaulting to verdana. This was not happening before the Firefox 8.0 Update.

I have made sure that gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled = true and that Options > Content > Fonts & Colors > Advanced has "Allow Pages to Choose their own fonts..." has been checked.

Any possible thoughts as to a cause?
