 When using !OpenLayers.Format.GeoJSON with a geojson string containing
 "FeatureCollection", in IE it can't load any features.  See a
 [http://dev4.mapgears.com/tests/openlayers-testsgeojson/examples/vector-
 features.html live example] showing the issue.  The json string contains 1
 feature.  In Firefox, when alerting obj.features.length we get "1" but in
 IE we get "2", thus resulting in an error and "null" is returned instead
 of the features.

 The attached patch resolves the issue. but it's more kinda of a "plaster"
 instead of a "remedy" (it's still bleeding, but we don't see it).  Any
 better solution would be welcomed.  See the same example as before with
 the [http://dev4.mapgears.com/tests/openlayers-testsgeojson-
 withfix/examples/vector-features.html fix].
