If you use a means of fetching scripts or data by dynamically
inserting script tags into the document, some versions of IE (I've
encountered it in 6 for sure) have a bug whereby this kills the
document:

http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.4.2.js
Lines 5091-4:
"""
        // Use insertBefore instead of appendChild  to circumvent an IE6 bug.
        // This arises when a base node is used (#2709 and #4378).
        head.insertBefore( script, head.firstChild );
"""

I know that Google use dynamic script tag insertion in some of their
code, so unnecessary use of a base tag may not be advisable.
