Confirmed. Safari blocks a redirect while trying to load a subresource from
another domain (because the server doesn't respond), while Firefox goes on.

This subresource is loaded via an Image object:

var img = new Image();

img.src =
"http://te.thestar.com/blank.gif?0.8177388644859841&snippet_version=1.2&referrer=&page=http%3A//www.thestar.com/&timezone=-180&var_PageCategory=/thestar/Homepage";

location.href="http://www.thestar.com/NASApp/cs/ContentServer?pagename=thestar/Render&inifile=futuretense.ini&c=Page&cid=968332188492&pubid=968163964505
&pubid=968163964505"; // blocks here
