Safari 5.1 shipped with WebKit 2. We should update the Debugging WebKit page <http://www.webkit.org/building/debug.html> to describe how to support debugging WebKit 2.

Here is how to do it for people that do not know yet:

defaults write com.apple.Safari IncludeInternalDebugMenu 1

And then in Safari 5.1 you'll see a Debug menu. From here you can either do "New Single-process Window" or turn off "Use Multi-process Windows". Once that is done your Xcode breakpoints will be hit.

The better way to do it is here:

The linked wiki page is empty and the content appears to be on debug.html now. Closing bug.
