Description

Firefox 11: https://github.com/jashkenas/backbone/runs/4907194010?check_suite_focus=true

Chrome 26 and 40: https://github.com/jashkenas/backbone/runs/5250001247?check_suite_focus=true#step:6:105

IE 9 and 10: https://github.com/jashkenas/backbone/runs/5250001247?check_suite_focus=true#step:6:182

I have disabled these browsers in the `karma.conf-sauce.js` for the time being, but getting them to run somehow would be desirable.

Research direction

Start with karma.conf-sauce.js and the linked Firefox, Chrome, and IE run results to identify why these browser tests fail in Sauce Labs. Restore the disabled browsers only after their runs complete successfully, and verify that the relevant Sauce Labs test suite passes for all listed versions.
