Conflict jQuery and JSON

Douglas Crockfords json.js and John Resigs jquey.js conflict with each other. This is caused by a flaw in Javascript that is described in this article: http://yuiblog.com/blog/2006/09/26/for-in-intrigue/

So what do you do... Both libraries are really well written. and I haven't found any decent alternatives for Douglas json or Resigs jquery. So correct json or correct jQuery?

Of course the for..in loops in jQuery should be fixed. But fixing json.js is a more pragmatic aproach of the problem. Fixing json.js is a lot easier then fixing jQuery and more importantly json.js will have probably far less new versions and releases as jQuery. So the effort to stay up to date will be a lot smaller.

The adjusted version can be downloaded: json-noaugmenting.js
