T-Mobile JavaScript comment stripper breaks websites

http://j.mp/ne2fSv  (Register)

    "The T-Mobile JavaScript comment-stripper appears to be searching
     for '/*' and '*/' and removing everything in between. This might
     work in most cases; however in the jQuery library, we find a
     string containing '*/*', and later down the file, another string
     containing '*/*'.  T-Mobile removes everything between the things
     it thinks are comment markers, even though they're actually
     contained within strings, causing the jQuery library to be
     invalid JavaScript and stopping anything using jQuery from
     running," he wrote."
