ES5 + .extend is not necessary for this simple chunk.

(function($){
    if (!Object.create)
        var F = function(){};
    $.beget = function (proto, props) {
        if(Object.create)
            var o = Object.create(proto);
        else {
            F.prototype = proto;
            var o = new F;
        }
        for ( var k in props )
            o[k] = props[k];
        return o;
    };
})(jQuery);
