It's apparently linked to the caching of the original src in some way (IE has other `src` caching bugs like this). Looks like if you have a query string, regardless of the actual HTTP-level cacheability, the problem does not occur. Otherwise it is sporadic (based on some other heuristic). Play with path?dummy and you should see a diff: http://jsfiddle.net/sanford/mS6KR/. -- S.
