Comment:
I did some further research and finally understood what this is all about.
There is [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/956233/javascript-pathname-
ie-quirk a nice summary on StackOverflow] about that issue.
In short, the existing fix is necessary and sufficient. In Internet
Explorer ≤ 9, `window.location.pathname` has always a leading slash, but
`a.pathname` (where `a` is an `<a href>` tag) has no leading slash. So the
workaround is really only needed for `a.pathname` and not for
`window.location.pathname`.
Thus, I'm proposing another patch which doesn't change the code, but adds
an explaining comment to prevent others from wasting time on that issue.
Please review.
