MSN maps work when spoofing as Firefox 2

[Yael]

Load the page http://autos.msn.com/everyday/trafficreport.aspx?city=Boston.
In IE and FireFox, you can see a map with traffic information, but in Safari the map is missing. 
Using ethereal on Windows, I could see that the images of the map are not being requested by Safari browser.

I see three errors logged to the JavaScript console when loading the page:

TypeError: Null value

Line: 801

TypeError: Value undefined (result of expression VEValidator.ValidateFloat) is not object.

Can't find variable: VEDashboardSize

Used a local debug build of WebKit r28828 with Safari 3.0.4 (523.12) on Mac OS X 10.4.11 (8S165).

Works perfectly with Firefox useragent string in Safari 3

Since spoofing as Firefox 2 works in Safari 3, this is an evangelism issue.
