Ok, what I did - bad, bad - I fumbled with dynapi.js :
[... ]     =20
 this.safari =3D ua.indexOf("safari")>-1;  // always check for safari & o=
pera=20
// may be next line was me or it was in one of the snapshots
this.konqueror =3D ua.indexOf("konqueror")>-1;
this.opera =3D ua.indexOf("opera")>-1;    // before ns or ie
[...]
}else if (this.safari) {      // safari part untouched
       this.ns6 =3D (this.v>=3D5); // ns6 compatible correct?
       this.b =3D "Safari";
 }else if (this.konqueror) {  // my quirk
    this.ie =3D this.ie6 =3D true;
    this.v =3D 6;
    this.b =3D "MSIE";
  }=20
[...]
this.win32 =3D ((ua.indexOf("win")>-1) || this.konqueror);
[...]

Sure the kde people like to kill me for that

Maybe it would be enough to :
[ ... ]
}else if (this.safari || this.konqueror)) {   =20
       this.ns6 =3D (this.v>=3D5); // ns6 compatible correct?
      (this.safari)?this.b =3D "Safari":this.b =3D "Konqueror";=20
[ ... ]
