IE8: No body element found. #248

I'm having a problem using the alpha build with IE8, where it's not finding the document body for some reason. I'm receiving an alert saying "Rangy is not supported in this environment. Reason: No body element found"

Here's my trivial test code:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <script type="text/javascript" src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/timdown/rangy/master/lib/rangy-core.js"></script>
  </head>

  <body>
    <header>
      <h1>Javascript annotation service test</h1>
    </header>

  </body>

</html>

Swapping the script out for the Google Code version removes this error. Adding rangy.init() immediately after including the script does not resolve the issue.
