Considering the KB article 
<http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58583> does not have 
the B&W G3 in the list of computers that support FW target disk mode, 
I'd say it probably isn't supported.

As for the definition of "supported' there seems to be some confusion. 
"Supported"  to me means it will boot up in FW target disk mode. 
"Supported" does not mean simply being able to see a computer that has 
been booted in FW target disk mode. AFAIK any Mac with a FW port, 
built-in or not, will do that.
