Easily fixable - just replace line 64

docElement = doc.documentElement,

with

docElement = doc.getElementsByTagName("html")[0],

I had the HTML5 DTD while testing, but i after trying to trigger the bug again, i found that i messed up: IE complains about a missing comma on line 69

mod = 'modernizr'

which i fixed without thinking about it and thought the real error must be the documentElement call above. Sry, it works fine, just the comma is missing ;)
