Here are a couple of thoughts, which I haven’t had time to test:
1. Use a GEvent "click" and "mousemove" as an optional way of tracking
the clicks on the map.
a. IE8 will report the "mousemove" GLatLng correctly so at the
moment of the click grab the mousemove’s GLatLng, here’s one idea on
how to do it - http://lab.gmtplusone/google-maps/click-event-issue/#the-code.
b. Compare the mousemove’s GLatLng received in a to the area of
your GPolyline. If it's within the GPolyline area then execute the
click as a click on the GPolyline.
2. Try using the GTileLayer
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/reference.html#GTileLayer
with an image that has the GPolyline as you would have “normally”
drawn it with the Google Maps API.
Overall, it seems to be part of a continuing saga that a workaround
needs to be figured out for another IE product, it really is a
pity ...
