With tests! Conclusive, repeatable proof!

There's gotta be a better way

I'm all ears.

currently no good way I can see to detect that IE9 and IE10 have fired interactive too early. Although, now that there's this repeatable test case, perhaps you can poke around too. For now, this seems to be the only way (although I agree it's dirty).

Thanks mike! I was getting gray hairs by this one...

@peterschmidler Thanks. Keeping my fingers crossed that nothing pops up in chrome or Firefox!

This fix was just what I needed after upgrading to 1.8.0. Looking forward to seeing it in a stable jQuery release (and NuGet package, in my case). Thanks, Mike!
