I also see this both in an older version of Safari running on OSX and on Safari
4 beta on Windows Vista.  It also happens in Google Chrome. 

The page does become scrollable again - the scrollbars just don't reappear.  If
you scroll manually with scroll wheel / two-finger scrolling / cursor keys etc,
the scrollbars reappear.

As a workaround for this issue, I've had to make the page auto-scroll 1px down
and 1px back up (in case it's scrolled hard to the top or hard to the bottom):
window.scrollBy(0,1);
window.scrollBy(0,-1);

It does result in a minor visible scroll, but since it's 1px at most, and it
happens in conjunction with the scrollbar reappearing, it's not a huge deal. 
Would be nice to see this issue fixed in Webkit, though.
