I had a quick look at it. Given that the OSM data is clearly separate from the google map background I don't see any problem with that aspect. They naturally should add attribution to OSM as soon as they display the buildings, IMHO on the map.
Naturally if the agreement they have entered in to with google is anything like their standard T&Cs then they likely have a problem with googles terms, but that is not our problem.
