jQuery 1.1.3 testbuild breaks latest validation plugin in IE6

Description
An update from 1.1.2 to the latest revision in SVN breaks a lot of the validation plugin in IE6. The testsuite should be quite helpful tracking down the issues:
http://jquery.bassistance.de/validate-113/demo-test/test.html
Plugin in svn: http://jqueryjs.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/plugins/validate
A diff is not very useful due to the tons of changes since 1.1.2. I'll try to track down specific problems and report them here.

Jörn,
After some testing, it looks like the problem may lie in the context selectors. Most of the errors being thrown in IE seems to be in the getLength function around the statement:
if( /radio|checkbox/i.test(element.type) )
return jQuery(element.form document).find('[@name="' + element.name + '"]:checked').length;
I tried changing the line to:
if( /radio|checkbox/i.test(element.type) )
return jQuery('[@name="' + element.name + '"]:checked', element.form document).length;
And jQuery still doesn't find any matches. However, if I change the line to:
if( /radio|checkbox/i.test(element.type) )
return jQuery('[@name="' + element.name + '"]:checked').length;
All of the sudden it starts finding matches. This makes me think there's an issue in jQuery's selector code.

If you run the following code, I think it illustrates the problem:
<html>
<head>
<title>jQuery - Field Problem</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="./lib/jquery-1.1.3a.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(
function (){
var aTest = [
'$("#radio1", $("#frmExample"))'
, '$("#radio1", document.getElementById("frmExample"))'
, '$("#radio1")'
, '$("#radio1", document.frmExample)'
, '$("#frmExample").find("#radio1")'
, '$(document.getElementById("frmExample")).find("#radio1")'
, '$(document.frmExample).find("#radio1")'
, '$("#radio1", $("#frmExample")[0])'
, '$($("#frmExample")[0]).find("#radio1")'
, '$(document.getElementById("debug"))'
];
var oDebug = $("#debug");
for( var i=0; i < aTest.length; i++ ){
oDebug.append(
$("<div>").html(aTest[i] + ".length = " + eval(aTest[i]).length)
);
}
}
);
</script>
</head>
<body>

When you pass in a form element that's retrieved by the document.getElementById() method, jQuery does not properly convert that to a jQuery object. Referencing the element by using other DOM methods works as expected.

Thanks Brandon, that fixed most issues I had with 1.1.3 and the validation plugin. But there is one quirk left, something else that worked fine with jQuery 1.1.2. A testpage is here: http://jquery.bassistance.de/validate-113/demo-test/test.html

Ok, the actual problem occurs in line 103 of the metadata plugin. I got there by removing the try-catch-block inside testrunner.js' test-function (around callback()) and using Microsofts Script Debugger. Adding "var el = this" before the line that causes the error shows that "this" points to a DOM element without any (interesting) properties set. It has a ownerDocument (the testsuite page) but no parentnode etc. The callstack contains jQuery.clean, I guess thats where the regression occured, because that method got a lot of attention in 1.1.3.

It was with the clean method and it is now fixed in Rev [2192].
I still have no real idea whats going wrong. At least I figured out that the testsuite outputs a slight different (not any better result) when messing with the required-validation-method (around line 828 of jquery.validate.js in svn).
