Safari Flash caching issue solved in 10.5.3

Just to confirm that the bug in Safari (and WebKit) which prevented caching of SWF files has been fixed by the recent 10.5.3 update to OS X.

There’s no information on the 10.5.3 support page about the fix, but from a quick read of some related WebKit bug reports (18972 and 19144) it seems likely an unreported patch to CFNetwork has done the trick.

Discovered this by chance this morning when checking over a site we’re launching soon and noticed the files were loading too fast not to be cached!
