 > If this "jquery-migrate" is fouling it up...

 The problem is not with `jquery-migrate`. Currently the `jquery` handle is
 not a "real" handle but rather an alias for enqueueing both jQuery and
 jQuery Migrate at the same time. As `jquery` is not "printed", any data
 attached to it is not printed either.

 Wondering why plugins attach data to the `jquery` handle instead of their
 own scripts. The "localize" functionality makes sure dynamic data is
 outputted before the inclusion of a script that needs is. Attaching that
 data to a different script is not right and can break as in this case.
