I've seen it mentioned in a few places that Browserify isn't patible with IE8 and below (here, here, and alluded to here).

I don't see anything official about this in the docs. It looks like it may be the use of Function.prototype.call() but I can't tell for sure.

Does anyone know for sure:

• how far back IE is supported
• what code (if any) is inpatible with IE8
• any remended workarounds for IE8 specifically

I use Browserify for my library http://github./pllee/luc to build all of the browser code. My tests pass on IE6 and I am using ES5 shim but I don't think that would make Browserify work (chicken and egg situation). Those links you show are quite old and I know Browserify has changed its implementation since then.

You can see on their official page that they do support IE7 and greater.
