Thanks Jurriaan... a real lifesaver.

If you don't want to go back to such an old version, 5.0.5 also works, and 
you can get it from 
http://appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite.net/content.info.apple.com/Safari5/041-0564.20110413.Fi9pb/Safari5.0.5SnowLeopard.dmg

For everyone's benefit, here're the detailed steps I used:
1. download 5.0.5, extract the .pkg from the dmg.
2. get pacifist using Jurriaan's supplied link, use it to open the safari 
pkg.
3. extract safari.app and put it somewhere other than your Applications 
folder (otherwise it'll overwrite 5.1).  It'll be called 'Safari'; I renamed 
it to 'Safari 5.0.5'.  (all the other stuff in the pkg didn't seem to be 
necessary)
4. run you gwt webapp, then on the url, right-click, open with>Add a 
browser, pick the 5.0.5 app, and bob's your uncle!  (or just open browser, 
and paste url)

tested on lion and showcase, seems to work fine.

btw, there's 5.0.6 in the apple support download pages, but that's a leopard 
only thing.
