It still makes no difference. You can't install "them", since each 
installation will completely overwrite the previous one. You'll end up 
with one copy of Safari, one copy of WebKit, and three users all running 
the exact same app and libraries.

Without resorting to dyld trickery like WebKit.app does, you can only use 
one version of WebKit per system at a time. Even with dyld trickery, it 
seems that WebKit 1.3 is a lost hope on 10.4.
