[Greasemonkey] 0.6.1.4 scripts not executing on some eBay pages

[Jason Diamond]

Hi.

I'm having a hard time figuring out why my include directives aren't working 
on eBay.

I'm using FF 1.0.6 on Ubuntu Linux 5.04 with GM 0.6.1.4 <http://0.6.1.4>. I 
have a script that modifies search.ebay.com <http://search.ebay.com>. As 
soon as I upgraded to 0.6.1.4 <http://0.6.1.4>, it stopped working. After 
some experimentation, I was able to reduce my script to the minimum 
necessary to reproduce the problem:

>>>
// ==UserScript==
// @name Why is this broken?
// @namespace http://jason.diamond.name/userscripts
// @description this is a test
// @include http://search.ebay.com/*
// ==/UserScript==

alert('you should see me!');
<<<

As you can see, my original script had nothing to do with my current 
problem.

Notice the @include directive. If I install this script, I do see the alert 
box when I visit http://search.ebay.com/. But when I visit any other URL 
that starts with that address, I don't see the alert box. For example, if I 
visit http://search.ebay.com/foo, I won't see the alert box.

Whenever I don't see the alert box, I see this in my JavaScript Console:

Error: uncaught exception: Permission denied to call method 
HTMLDocument.evaluate

When I do see the alert box (by visiting http://search.ebay.com/), I don't 
see that message.

If I uninstall my script, I still see that error message in my JavaScript 
Console. So maybe it's a problem with the eBay search pages? Could they be 
throwing an exception that is causing GM to not execute my script? Any 
ideas?

An unrelated weirdness: My test script is called test.user.js. But when I 
install it, I see this in the status bar: "whyisthisbroken.user.js installed 
succesfully."

Thanks.
