I don't know how many people are suffering this, but whenever I add an RSS bookmark to my Safari 3.0 bookmark bar, it never updates with the number of new RSS articles against the name. Yet if I look at the bookmark in the bookmark manager, it happily shows the number of new articles, as seen in this screenshot.
I found that if you create a folder in your bookmark bar, then add your RSS feeds to that folder, it actually works as expected. The number of new articles appear as you would expect next to the site name within the folder, as seen in this image.
[robg adds: I think this is probably expected behavior, as adding the article count to bookmarks directly in the URL bar would cause the entries to change position as the message counts changed for each bookmarked RSS feed.]
