Jquery Jsonp: Żądanie nie powiodło się: parsererror w Internet Explorer 9 i niższych

Używam JSONP do wysyłania żądań między domenami. Skrypt działa idealnie w Firefox i Chrome, ale w IE 9 i niższych otrzymuję następujący błąd:

Request failed: parsererror
Error: jQuery1720027601653975035778_1348794800150 was not called

Próbowałem ustawić dataType z jsonp na text/json, ale wtedy nie będzie działać w Chrome lub Firefox, a gdy połączenie zakończy się powodzeniem w IE, otrzymuję pustą odpowiedź.
