Latest Safari release and latest WebKit before this fix already show different
behaviour using your scrolls. Especially, the top right box can be scrolled
with the latter, since the scroll bar isn't completetly obscured by the native
scroll bar. This might imply that there were another, now fixed, bug between
latest release and latest nightly, that your scrolls needed fixed.

I understand your decision wrt going from auto to hidden in javascript, but I
don't know how to work around old Safaris bugs.

Just so you know, even if it's fixed in WebKit doesn't mean Safari immediately
gets the fix. Safari updates usually come with OS X 10.x.x updates, which are a
couple months between. Also, I think there is no knowing if this very bug fix
gets into such an update, well maybe unless you are Apple. And then there is
the state of Safari on 10.3, of which I know little (don't know if only
security fixes go there, or other fixes also).

All in all, I think that if you want as many as possible to be able to interact
with your pages, you should wait until a released version of Safari supports
the custom scroll bars, and then sniff for that version number, blocking
earlier versions. Unless you find a workaround, of course.
