Not sure if you have already read it but it seems like MS as changed the 
user agent string of IE 11 on Windows Phone 8.1 Update 1 to some sort of a 
catch-all user agent:

*Mozilla/5.0 (Mobile; Windows Phone 8.1; Android 4.0; ARM; Trident/7.0; 
Touch; rv:11.0; IEMobile/11.0; NOKIA; Lumia 920) like iPhone OS 7_0_3 Mac 
OS X AppleWebKit/537 (KHTML, like Gecko) Mobile Safari/537*

In case of GWT that would mean IE11 will be treated as "safari" on updated 
windows phones and as "gecko" otherwise. Seems like a good example why we 
should introduce a modern permutation sooner than later in GWT and do 
feature checks for the remaining differences.

But at least we might need to revisit rebind rules in GWT to figure out if 
runtime checks introduced in the gecko permutation to support IE 11 are 
also executed for the safari permutation.
