Using respond.js and doing window.matchMedia() always returns false in IE8 #53

I'm calling window.matchMedia("(min-width: 640px)").matches; in IE8 with a 1024x768 resolution and browser maximied and I'm getting false. I thought this script was to add matchMedia support in IE8, but unless I'm missing something, it doesn't.

UPDATE: respond.js seems to be using and old version of matchMedia...
