New crashes with Safari and Perl saving the blog day

Just now, I was happy about the new Beta version for Safari and Windows. I even was courageouos enough to type the previous blog post using Safari. Unfortunately, I noticed a new bug through this: When trying to enter text in any single-line text field, Safari will crash on my machine. Even when applying the localization fix. What a pity. Because I didn't want to type the whole post again, I searched for a memory dump tool while the crash dialog was still open. I found a Perl module called Win32::Process::Memory . With a Perl script I improvised on the fly, I was able to dump the whole process memory and through this save about half of the blog post (and almost all of the English version). Thank you, Zhou Qingjie!
