IE6 : CKEDITOR.dom.node.replace() fails with invalid argument error

Description

This code is somewhat sloppy but I had to kludge together an example from a plugin I'm trying to integrate.

Setup: I entered one word of text into CKEditor, which when you view source looks like this:

<p>
	word</p>

The following JavaScript works fine in Firefox, Chrome, and IE8:

	var new_node = CKEDITOR.dom.element.createFromHtml( '<span>Hello!</span>' );
	var old_node = CKEDITOR.instances.FCKeditor1.document.getDocumentElement().getChildren().getItem(1)['$'].childNodes[0];
	new_node.replace(CKEDITOR.dom.element.get(old_node));

All other browsers replace "word" with "<span>Hello!<span>". IE 6 throws an error indicating "Invalid Argument."

This may be related to this EXT JS bug where the author states "Internet Explorer throws an exception when no target node is specified in a call to the insertBefore() method of a native DOM object (other browsers just append the new node at the end in this case)."

I have tried the workaround listed there but to no avail. Any help would be awesome :)
