We are using the ASP.NET Web Optimization Framework with bundles and minification.
One bundle just contains jquery and modernizr. This all worked fine with jquery 1.8.3 but
There may be something wrong with your copy of modernizr.form-placeholder.js .
I just ran into the same error trying to load jquery.peity.js.
When I removed the library, page loaded fine. So I just went and grabbed the raw js from their site and remade the file and it loaded with no problems.
