The IE6 disable patch is in prod now. I've tested

have not noticed any issues - if anything, IE6 actually feels usable
now when before it kept throwing errors or was just slowing to a

wmf19 lands on
mw.org (to give us a little bit more time for any
issues to be reported).
This is ready to be merged unless folks have final concerns:

IE7 is pretty badly broken in prod (and has been for a long time), so
AFAICT this will be a clear net improvement.
