What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. http://buyakilt.com/chmac_ie9.php
2. Load in IE9 http://www.webpagetest.org/result/140909_CN_1KG/
3. Load in Chrome http://www.webpagetest.org/result/140909_VQ_1KR/

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
In Chrome, or IE10+ the placeholder h1 header is replaced by the actual header 
via jQuery's .load(), but in IE9 this doesn't happen.

What version of the product are you using (please check X-Mod-Pagespeed header)?
1.8.31.4-4056

On what operating system?
Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS

Which version of Apache?
dpkg -l | grep apache
ii  apache2                          2.2.22-1ubuntu1.7                   Apache 
HTTP Server metapackage

Which MPM?
ii  apache2-mpm-prefork              2.2.22-1ubuntu1.7                   Apache 
HTTP Server - traditional non-threaded model

URL of broken page:
http://buyakilt.com/chmac_ie9.php

It could be something in the javascript that's failing, but if we disable 
defer_javascript the header loads as expected.

* The page is something of a messy example, it's using old HTML and new CSS, so 
it looks a bit wonky.

Summary was: Defer javascript not working in IE9

At the moment we have no evidence it has a problem on IE10 for whatever reason.

Related to #987, we'll have to fix the Varnish snippets to reflect this change. 
Created #996.

Is blacklisting for IE 9 and IE 11 the only solution here? Feels like we're 
excluding a lot of users (>16% of all our users). Is there a longer term plan 
to fix the issues with IE9 and IE11, or are they a lost cause?

Downstream caching: very good point and thanks for entering the bug.

IE 9:  probably we won't address this as the usage count will diminish over time

IE 11: we ought to investigate this further, yeah.  We found one site that 
didn't work with IE11 and did with Chrome, but maybe that's not sufficient 
reason to blacklist, and IE11 users will grow over time.
