When I installed the 2007-009 security update for 10.5.1 I saw a blank screen and the disc did not start up. I had to repair the hardrive, which was messed up by the update.

It would be nice if Apple were to inspect whether or not you had the debug version installed and update the correct version instead of replacing this version with the normal version. That was a good 20 minutes spent working out why my debug output disappeared.

A reinstall, repair permissions etc hasn't solved the problem.
Just did the security update and everythings working fine here. :-)

I upgraded to Saft 10.0.3, but still get the same error message, saying this version of Safari isn't supported and that Saft won't run."
Safari was updated in the release so it probably was caused by this patch.
I wonder if this update has a negative impact on hacked iPhones. Does anybody know?
