Sortable broken in absolutely positioned div with bottom 0

[[email protected]…]

I am seeing some strange behavior with Jquery 1.8 where scrolling is not working on a sortable list. Here is a fiddle example: ​http://jsfiddle.net/m765z/3/

As you can see, the list is not scrolling on the drag. If you downgrade to 1.7.2, everything works as desired.

Here is a StackOverflow question that another user opened about this very issue:
