 From Mac Central:

"An article posted to Apple's Knowledge Base Web site
<http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107370> notes the
problems that this beta update fixes: under certain circumstances, the
original release of Safari could delete a symbolic link to the /tmp
file. As a result, some users could see the following problems:

* Classic will not launch.
* Attempts to print fail, with the alert message "error while printing".
* Software Update fails, with the alert message "An unexpected error
has occurred".
* Personal file sharing will not start.
* You cannot burn CDs or DVDs.

Apple said that the new v51 version available for download from Apple's
Web site corrects these issues. Instructions are also provided for how
to recover from the problem without downloading the new beta -- visit
the KnowledgeBase document for further instructions. "
