Filed a bug in Safari/WebKit:
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=320657
This has been a multi-day rabbit hole that started with a poorly behaving CORS on Live365 and culminated with filing this Webkit bug report.
If a server/cdn streams an unterminated body in response to an OPTIONS fetch (CORS preflight), Safari hangs indefinitely, waiting for the body to end. That isn't standards compliant.
Chrome and Firefox properly look at the response headers only, close the request and move on.
