I'd guess that it's a "quirk" in FF's text rendering:

Your text isn't actually changing from bold to normal; instead, FF is
changing how it anti-aliases that text, with the end result being that
the text weight seems to change.

Setting something's opacity to 0.9999 might do the trick, as suggested
in the article. On the other hand, having elements with opacities of
less than 1 can quickly hinder your page's performance, so...
