Sad indeed. I weep bitter tears. Mostly because you have completely out-geeked me; I use neither Safari nor Camino. I still think Firefox is cool, especially with the ad blockers running.
In Safari, like Firefox, the browser does not show ALT text as a mouseover, because the coders who developed Safari rather self-righteously decided that it shouldn't, because the alt text wasn't originally designed to be used that way, and why should they accomodate an evolved usage when it wasn't in the original design? Besides, it was an IE thing and IE is evil.
In Firefox, unlike Safari, someone went out and developed an add-on that re-enables the mouseover as a feature. Those who prefer to regard it as a bug are free to refrain, of course.
So I would suggest that you view LOLMac in Firefox, after installing the Popup Alt Text Attribute Add-on. Especially since you've now contributed thereunto! Or you can write your own add-on for Safari that shows Alt text.
