I actually have no Safari installations here locally.  To do the test for you,
I downloaded Safari 4.0.5 (531.22.7) and running it on Win XP.  Like I said,
from my server logs, I see this problem with a variety of OS and browser
versions.  For example I see it on Mac OS X and on my own Android based G1
phone.  All the browsers I see this on are webkit based. That's why I assumed
it may have to do with webkit.



> - Does this happen with a nightly build from <http://nightly.webkit.org>?

I am sure it does.  This problem has been on my back for over a year and a
half.  I have also been able to see similar complaints on the web with no real
solution.  Here are a few examples:

I have such a trace.  I setup another server with the same application and
running on http port rather than https.  I can send you the complete trace. 
Rather than post it here, can I e-mail it to you directly?
