jQuery 1.2.1 + Draggable triggers infinite loop of errors

[Brandon!]

I have noticed a bug with jQuery 1.2.1 and any type of draggable extension (I have tested with both Interface and UI) where once you release the draggable element, jQuery will throw a bunch of errors every second in an infinite loop. I can reproduce their error easily on Firefox 2 with not only my scripts (which were working with 1.1.2, but also jQuery's site. It seems to effect any reference to the Draggable class. To see this bug follow these steps:

• Start Firefox 2 (tested on 2.0.0.7 with all addons disabled)
• Navigate to any jQuery sortable script (​http://docs.jquery.com/UI/

Sortables)

• Interact with the sortable (drag any element in any direction)
• Watch the error messages tally up (if you have Firebug, you will see

the error counter keep going and going and going...)
