$.extend deep copy not performed

[adamdarmanin@…]

Link to JSFiddle: ​http://jsfiddle.net/adamd1985/dN4QM/2/

Using the latest JQuery library from: ​http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.js. Occurs on all latest browsers and O/Ss

With a plain object created by javascript new(), we noticed that jquery.extend() doesn't perform a deep copy of any other plain objects encountered within the properties of this parent object and instead copies the reference. This occurs even when we set the deep copy argument to true.

Is this how it should function? This might be related to: ​http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/11557

Thanks for taking the time to contribute to the jQuery project!

Your test case is definitely appreciated, but could you reduce it to the single smallest piece of code that demonstrates the bug you're reporting? Thanks!
