IE9 posting coverage...

For some reason we seem to be having issues with IE9 at the end of its test in CI. A quick google appears to be related to throwing an error when trying to introspect XMLHttpRequest at the wrong time. I am not sure if it is something in dojo/core or something in Intern that is causing the challenge.

This is an issue with request/xhr. request.abort() is called when the request times out, but the onreadystatechange callback is still fired. A guard can be added when the request is aborted to prevent this error in IE9, although I'm having a hard time coming up with a unit test for this that doesn't unnecessarily expose implementation innards.

While I agree about the unit tests at the moment, it brings up a question. Should there be an exposed public API around abort() for request? @bryanforbes any thoughts?

Nevermind, I am talking rubbish... DOH! Ignore me.
