[info] MyApp powered by Catalyst 5.7007
You can connect to your server at http://jasper.local:3000

Same, nothing… tried with the -k too, as well as adding arbitrary  
strings to the URI, like http://jasper.local:3000/asdf -- no trouble  
with Firefox or IE.

OS 10.4.8, Safari 2.0.4 (419.3)

????????? Thanks for looking at it.
