I'd prefer using a caption element, even if it isn't backwards compatible.
However as an alternative why not reuse the label element?

Apparently, the label element used outside a fieldset has the same problems as caption outside a table (not present in the DOM, impossible to style). At least on Gecko and WebKit.

I think you confused the <legend> and <label> elements, because what you said and what you tested doesn't correspond. Your test doesn't use the <label> element, it uses the <caption> and <legend> elements. <label> certainly doesn't suffer from such problems, but using it for labelling things other than form controls seems wrong to me anyway.
