I confirm that I'm encountering this bug as well with dynamically created SMIL animate elements:

rect = document.createElementNS(svgns, 'rect');
rect.setAttribute('x', 50);
rect.setAttribute('y', 50);
rect.setAttribute('width', 50);
rect.setAttribute('height', 50);
rect.setAttribute('fill', '#0f5');
rect.setAttribute('stroke', '#085');
rect.setAttribute('stroke-width', '4');
anim = document.createElementNS(svgns, 'animate');
anim.setAttribute('attributeName', 'x');
anim.setAttribute('calcMode', 'linear');
anim.setAttribute('additive', 'replace');
anim.setAttribute('accumulate', 'none');
anim.setAttribute('from', 50);
anim.setAttribute('to', 100);
anim.setAttribute('begin', '2s; 5s');
anim.setAttribute('dur', '2s');
anim.setAttribute('fill', 'remove');
rect.appendChild(anim);
svg.appendChild(rect);
