Safari 4 (beta) seems to have an issue with caching. Once an image (or whatever) fails to load, it never seems to load again until you quit Safari and re-launch it (and perhaps clear the cache - cmd-opt-e).

I've even tried loading up the image directly (it works), then reloading the page that contains it (still shows up as missing). Grrrrr.

Wolf Rentzsch pointed me towards Drew Thaler's post, which contains a Safari bookmarklet to reload broken images.

This will work on a per-page basis. Unfortunately, it works by assigning a parameter to the image (i.e. "blah.png?1") to force Safari into thinking it's a different image than the one it refuses to load. In other words, Safari will still fail to load the original image.
