Weird... I wasn't able to reproduce this behavior using Firefox 3.
Tested several with current release (3.0.x [1]) and nightly version
(3.2 alpha [2]). I've tried several examples from the specification
[3], from which "Use02" [4] seems to pretty well fit to the described
test case.

As I wasn't able to reproduce (no link cursor nor action when
clicked), it occurs to me that you may be doing some DOM manipulation
from the HTML environment which is actually causing this. Can you
confirm this or create a reduced test case [5] to help further
investigation? I'd suggest single SVG file containing the simplest
symbol+use combination which triggers this behavior.

Hope this helps,
