Safari 3 and Acid2

We all know that Safari 3 for Windows has lots of bugs. There are also other questions about Apple's move to put Safari on the Windows platform. I'm not going to get into all that because at this point it doesn't matter much. Safari is here (in Beta but still here) and my managers will want at some point to support it.

Acid2. We all know it and we all hate browsers who can't render it correctly. We also know that Safari for Mac was one of the first major browsers to pass Acid2. So heres where it gets interesting, the version of Safari 3 (3.0.2 (522.13.1) I have installed my Windows XP box passes only when certain conditions are met. The version of Safari 3 (3.0.2 (522.13.1) my friend Zach has installed on his Windows XP box doesn't pass. His results include an orange bandanna. Odd.
