Summary:	Finding elements by attribute selector when set as a boolean fails in IE 6/7
Description:	To set a boolean value via Node.setAttribute it's necessary to coerce it to a string to then be able to find it with attribute selectors in IE. Node.getAttribute explicitly uses a flag which ensures IE will return the attr value as a string. This same flag is not used in the selector lookup which means that using something like Node.setAttribute("aria-disabled", false) and then Y.one('[aria-disabled="false"]) will fail in IE 6 and 7 but Node.getAttribute will return the string "false".
