Description
Trying to use jQuery's ajax method on a cross-site XMLHttpRequest fails because script is not allowed to call setHeader on these requests. The attached testcase tries to load http://tinderbox.mozilla.org/showbuilds.cgi?tree=Firefox&json=1 using $.get, and fails.

Throwing this in a try{} block should do the trick.

Fixed in [3978]. This doesn't appear to have been just an FF3 problem and in fact didn't work in any browser. The fix was to add dataType == "json" as an allowable remote type. Check the changeset for details.
One problem with the above test case is it used $.get instead of $.getJSON. The new test case sets the dataType correctly.
Please follow the bug reporting guidlines and use jsFiddle when providing test cases and demonstrations instead of pasting the code in the ticket.
