Attached patch possible fix (obsolete) — — Splinter Review
There are a lot of ways this could be fixed - I wanted to avoid the #ifdef solution, so I went with the try catch, but I'm open to suggestions.

I'm getting into my release mode, wanting to see as few characters as possible changed :) getElementById() is perfectly happy to not find anything, so there's no need to try/catch, as long as we null-check before we use it.
