Comment(by Mittineague):

 I think I may have thought of a better solution then testing for support
 of the instanceof operator that will still be faster than is_a and not
 throw errors of any type.

 eg.
 {{{
 //      if ( !is_a($wp_scripts, 'WP_Scripts') )
         if ( !( get_class($wp_scripts) == 'WP_Scripts' ) )
 }}}
 get_class is even a little faster than instanceof and was introduced in
 PHP version 4
