Creating jQuery instance with leading white space fails

Description

Here is a sample for the use case:

http://jsbin.com/ecarub/2/edit

If you remove the leading white space in the DIV#foo or in the commented JavaScript it will work properly.

It will also work properly with jQuery version 1.8.*.

P.S. I've tried the git version of jQuery. Unfortunately same behavior can be observed.
