That isn't what the documentation says:
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/overlays.html#KMLLayers

The Maps API converts the provided geographic XML data into an in-
memory KML representation which is displayed on the map using V3
overlays.

Perhaps if that is not true, someone could update the documentation...
