Description

When upgrading to the latest jQuery, 1.7.1, I found a regression when using the popular XRegExp library (a dependency of the popular SyntaxHighlighter). The error occurs in all versions of IE. Wasn't able to get it running on jsFiddle, but here's the minimal test case:

And the error:

Unable to get value of the property 'slice': object is null or undefined (line 281) (xregexp.js)

Even though the error is showing up on a line number in xregexp, that library is stable since March 2010, and works with all previous stable versions of jQuery (1.0.4, 1.1.4, 1.2.6, 1.3.2, 1.4.4, 1.5.2, 1.6.4, 1.7.0), so this is a regression in jQuery 1.7.1
