:nth-child selector not accurate after new child element added

Description
Using the :nth-child selector after a new child element has been added to a parent isn't working correctly in 1.8.0. However, with 1.7.2 the same scenario works as expected.
A test for using .find vs .children was added as well because in 1.7.2 using .children('.class:nth-child(NUMBER)') was significantly faster in Internet Explorer.
It seems the .find vs .children is also being handled differently. Using 1.8.0 the .find variant works in Chrome 21.0.1180.79 but .children remains incorrect.
I've only ran this against Internet Explorer 8 and Chrome 21.0.1180.79. Thanks for your time!
