Thanks Martin,
As far as I can tell the problem with Firefox is likely caused by an
attempt to use the DOM's document.write method to inject a script
element dynamically. That is done by the Google maps code you include it
seems.
it seems that you did hit the bull's eye.
...
I don't see an easy workaround, unless Google provides an API or a way
to use the maps code without relying on document.write.
And since its a Javascript API, they might not even care on XSLT.
I was able to prove that your explanation is correct by getting this
Firefox
error console message:
Warning: A call to document.write() from an asynchronously-loaded external
script was ignored.
Source File: http://stamm-wilbrandt.de/en/xsl-list/gmap/s.ff.html
Line: 0
For that I made use of the Javascript XSLTProcessor directly in HTML page:
http://stamm-wilbrandt.de/en/xsl-list/gmap/s.ff.html
That page loads stylesheet "s.xsl", XML document "s.xml" and then
transforms.

OK, now I really simplified the sample to a minimum.
The XML does not work for Firefox with the same error message, while the
XHTML is fine:
http://www.stamm-wilbrandt.de/en/xsl-list/gmap/s.xml
http://www.stamm-wilbrandt.de/en/xsl-list/gmap/s.html
Given the simplicity and that s.xsl just copies the XHTML file s.html I
have no idea on
what to do to make Firefox work with Google Maps API (v3) in a
stylesheet:

As Firefox's XSLT implementation directly renders the result tree of the
XSLT transformation is does not support document.write in the result
document (see
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/XSL_Transformations_in_Mozilla_FAQ#What_about_document.write.3F
).
I don't see an easy workaround, unless Google provides an API or a way
