Thanks for the about:config tip. I was also having the blank Google maps problem and I fixed it by going to about:config and changing dom.disable_image_src_set to false
(Somehow in trying to disable javascript animation I set it to true.)

To check it out, put 'about:config' in the address bar and make sure that 'network.http.pipelining' is set to 'false'.
