get(0) or [0] on an empty resultset returns the document element

On the packed and unpacked version downloadable on jquery.com, you get the following inconsistent behaviour :

Lookup for an element that doesn't exist :

#!js
var x = $('#something') // => [ ]
x[0]                    // => Document
x.get(0)                // => Document

Here is the code I've used to reproduce the bug :

<html>

<head>

<title>Jquery bug</title>

$(function() {

alert($('#kdjgldsg').get(0)); // should be null

})

</script>

</head>

<body>

<h1>Hello world</h1>

</body>

</html>
