Possible reason for this is this bug: http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/12357

JQUERY 1.8.0 NOT PARSEABLE BY XUL RUNNER APPLICATIONS

You can test this by setting up a simple xul runner window and including jQuery, then alert the typeof jQuery or $ which will result in a response of undefined.

If you paste the jQuery code into a script tag in the XUL main window, you will be able to see all the various parsing issues that have been released in this build.
