Verisign announced a new CA certificate in October 2010, Verisign Class 3 Secure Server G3. When will this be included in the CA list of the browser? It is in other browsers already (IE, Safari, etc), yet in Firefox you're currently prompted with a security warning for a trusted CA.

That is one of the intermediate certificates that VeriSign is using. Intermediate certificates are part of the chain that is formed by the web server certificates and build-in root certificates. Such an intermediate certificate needs to be send by the server and is not included by default in Firefox. Firefox will store such an intermediate certificate for future use when a website sends it.
