After my initial inquiry on ietf-smime about this interop issue a MS employee contacted me off-list. I think the MS developers now have found the concrete issue. He sent me details about the cause which seem plausible to me. Last information he wrote that he internally wants to open a premier support case for this leading to a hotfix to be released (instead of waiting for the next big service pack). So no need for you to open the support case yourself. I'd also think Mozilla should not change its implementation. I can't say what the MS forum moderator knows or understand.
