Comment (by azaozz):

 I'm 50/50 on this. Adding
 {{{
 filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(
 startColorstr='#ffffff', endColorstr='#000000', GradientType=0 ); /* IE
 6-9, no shorthand colors */
 }}}
 works in (the current) IE9 as well as 8 and 7.

 On the other hand IE10 (and Windows 8) will be released on October 26
 ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_8 more info]). So when 3.5 is
 released IE9 will be "old IE" :)

 However IE10 will only be available for win7+, meaning a lot of IE users
 would not be able to upgrade...
