you might talk to the Opera people. in addition to having a PC-type

versions that run on various embedded platforms. they've got a
smallish version that runs on the Nokia N800 (a linux-based handheld
device) which has decent performance and does ajax (i'm not sure what
standards or test suites apply, but google mail and one other ajax-ish
site i use work, which is all i really know about).
they're not open source and i believe you'd have to get their approval
for redistribution; not sure how that squares with any religious
convictions.

Opera is certainly worth a look, IMNSHO.
We've just stated shedding Firefox and SeaMonkey in favor of Opera.
Opera used to wear its feet on the wrong legs, UI-wise, but has become more
configurable, as well as better at handling the all-too prevalent badly-written
websites.
It builds faster and lighter from the *BSD ports tree than SeaMonkey or
Thunderbird, does not seem have their memory leaks or resource appetite on OS X
PPc versions.
Current license is not overly onerous, but a chat with them is certainly in
order.
