Currently the spec for the new history API (history.pushState and popstate
event,
http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/history.html) is
ambigous about when to trigger a popstate event, at least ambigous enough for
Chrome/Safari and Firefox to differ in a severe way (from an API user
perspective).

Relates to WHATWG bugs:
https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=18605 and
https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=18405

This will apply the following WHATWG patch:
