Thanks, I managed to find the big problem using Firebug lite (I had 
mis-deployed one of the files (openlayers.js) in my Windows environment. 
It was a case of case--I didn't name a file correctly.) And I discovered 
that the line numbers make sense if you can guess which js module to 
open (the IE error reporter always says the error is in the main html 
module, even if it's in a *.js file.)

Thanks for the help, guys!
