Robert Cumerford (not sure of the last name spelling now, don't have a magazine handy) of Automobile magazine wrote a column discussing just this issue a few months back (don't think it's available online). He basically compared a caddy STS and some big Merc (S or S coupe), and said he felt safer driving the caddy just because it was FWD, despite all of the electronic traction aids available on the merc.
Car magazine in the UK often mentions the high speed stability benefits of FWD as well....
