I have got to the bottom of it.
All my previous theories were wrong, and the real issue was actually
trivial.
Because some (not all) of my Qx projects have been migrated up through many
Qx versions (going way back to the 0.5 era), SOME of my projects had
index.jsp and/or index.html files without an explicit <body></body> element.
Apparently the other browsers (IE, FF, Chrome) will diligently insert a body
element (if it is missing) before running any javascript. Safari, on the
other hand, start running javascript before inserting the missing body
element.
The fix was simply to explicitly put in and empty body element.
