I've implemented a workaround that seems to fix this as far as I can tell. If you could test it in your own code and verify, I'd be much obliged: https://github.com/rgrove/yui3/commit/7dfbbf759aae9856f6ecc64a3f6e886385843627 |

That was quick! Thanks, I will try it out. |

The approach to solving this has changed, instead of doing fancy stuff to maintain a reference to the `location` object outside of the scope in which it is used, a new method, `Y.getLocation()` has been added to yui-core. All places in the source which were maintaining these references have been changed to not do so. |

Looks like this nasty Safari bug is rearing its ugly head again: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34679
Y.HistoryHash contains a workaround for this (it subscribes to the 'unload' event to force Safari not to use the page cache), but iOS 5 continues to use the page cache in spite of the unload event (which is totally not cool).
I'm investigating other workarounds now.
