Safari and anchor links: what the fuck?

Hi, so, switched to a MBP a couple months ago after having gone the PC router for a while. I tend to switch platforms every few years. Anyway, all has been dandy, aside from a weird quirk of Safari's -- it doesn't seem to jump to anchor links correctly.
Specifically, when clicking on the icon that usually takes you to the first unread post in a thread you're following, it instead takes you to some random post, on the same page, that I've already read. Sometimes its just a post or two from the first unread post, but sometimes it's half a page away. It's just annoying.
Anyone else have this? Any work-around? It looks like it might initially position the page correctly, and then elements of the page rendering wind up bumping it out of alignment.

Get Firefox 3 RC2, i'm using it on my MBP here. I think RC2 is probably going to be the final 3.0 build. I have noticed two minor bugs, but they are very minor one of them being site specific. (ie, the bug only occurs on the ebuyer.com site when downloading generated pdf files)
Get it. It bitch slaps Safari.
Remember Fx3 gets released this month and it's already the 11th, so it's looking increasingly like RC2 is the final 3.0 build.

I've got a spare copy of Portal, if anyone wants it message me.
Personally I hate that in Firefox. I start reading from the newest unread post somewhere here, scroll down a page or two, and then some slow-ass sig finally loads and it snaps right back up to the first unread, that I've already read.
Actually, I assume that's internally in the image someplace already, probably at the front. Mirite? Is is feasible for the browser read/use this data?
You mean like it already does? :P
The page still renders before the image servers respond so the browser can get image data, meaning plenty of snapping around.
That said, I'm having a hard time believing Firefox will ever be as good as Safari on OS X, not because of the way it renders pages, but because Firefox won't run at a decent speed.
