Well, it shows up for FFox v2 and v3 on Windows XP as well.
I managed to replicate it by shift+refreshing the page.
I also managed to stop it mid load by setting Firefox to 'Work
Offline' just as it displayed the flash of both boxes.
Using the Web Developer plugin for FFox I can tell you that the top
box has a class of '.gsmsc-mapDiv' while the bottom div one is
'.gsmsc-idleMapDiv', and both are wrapped in the
'.gsmsc-appContainer' div, and also the '#mapsearch' div.
I've not played with google maps enough, but doubt the above helps,
I just but know that it's not a PHP issue. It's almost like a flash
of unstyled content <http://www.bluerobot.com/web/css/fouc.asp/>,
but is being generated because of the javascript.
I hid the '.gsmsc-mapDiv' which stopped the flash of both box boxes
appearing, and I could view the map, but caused the map to disappear
after I tried searching for a different Google Maps location.

Thanks very much for your time looking into this.
It IS very similar of FOUC and I looked into that as a possible
problem/solution.
I think you can see why I didn't get a reply from my Google post --
it's one of those problems that Google has, but doesn't yet
understand it well enough to fix it. Too busy with new stuff *.
I may have to hide the map via css and then change display after load
-- I just didn't want to go that route IF there was a better way.
Thanks again,
tedd
PS: * I really like Google's Analytics, but hate all the javascript
errors it generates in FF firebug.
