Found a problem removing the style attribute in IE

- Style is now a special case in IE6/7 to set cssText.  My goal is to avoid calling attr again for the performance benefit, and at this point it would also cause an infinite loop for the boolean attributes hooks such as selected & checked.  Nevertheless, style seems to be the only one requiring a special call.
