You can repro this on myfavoritebeer
Steps to repro:
1. On Windows, install GCF http://www.google.com/chromeframe
2. In IE, force GCF to load myfavoritebeer.org; enter into the address bar: gcf:http://myfavoritebeer.org/
3. Click "Sign in"

EB: Sign-in dialog for Browserid
AB: Error page "Relay frame could not be found". This error page, notice, is rendered by IE, not by GCF.

I think the source of the problem is failure to communicate across iframe boundary. This is a known limitation of GCF.

I suspect the solution would be to use CORS headers to invoke the production.js script?
