Callback for getScript is called too early in Safari and Opera

Description

var myCallback = function() {

// ...

}

$.getScript(myLib, myCallback);

In Safari and Opera myCallback is called too early, before myLib script is downloaded and initialized. Note that this problem may not occur if your network latency is very low or you have myLib in browser cache.

Patch is attached.

This is currently working fine for me with jQuery 1.4.2 and jQuery 1.4.3.

I guess this is an issue related to script performance. We can have fixes such as your patch or looping a timeout...

But if the computer processing is slow, it is most probably that it will happen. (I mean, if you have an i7 probably won't suffer this)
