jquery 1.11 not working on objects with attribute .length = 0

Description

If there is an object that does got an attribute "length" which value is 0 jquery can not be used on it.

jQuery({length:0})

[]

jQuery({length:1})

[Object]

This is unexpected behaviour, horrible to debug and the source code does not provide a reasoning behind the check. (see function isArrayLike)
