Disabled link not reported as ":disabled"

Description

When using the ":disabled" selector on a disabled link, it is reported as not disabled. It doesn't seem to matter what the disabled attribute returns. Using the selector on other elements reports as expected

http://jsfiddle.net/Mottie/baD8d/1/

$('a').is(':disabled') // always false

The ":disabled" selector was reporting correctly in jQuery v1.2.6 and 1.3.2 but not in any of the newer versions.

The "a" tag doesn't have the "disabled" attribute, which is why it isn't working.

Tried the jsfiddle testcase with jQuery 1.2.6 and it didn't work either.
