javascript - PJAX listen to pjax:end event with standard js

Question

So github uses "defunkt's" PJAX module (https://github.com/defunkt/jquery-pjax#events), and I'm making a firefox addon that needs to listen to the event pjax:end

So far I can do it with jquery like this:

$(document).on('pjax:end', function (t) {
   console.log('pjax:end');
})

however how do I do this with standard javascript functions?

document.addEventListener('pjax:end',function(){
     console.log('ya');
}, true);

does not work.

for those who know firefox-addons this code code does not work:

gBrowser.contentWindow.wrappedJSObject['$'](gBrowser.contentDocument).on('pjax:end', function (t) {
    Cu.reportError('pjax:end');
})

it throws this error:

As far as I'm aware its not currently possible to catch jQuery events using native JavaScript (although looking at this bug ticket http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/11047 it appears that there are some library's that would enable this, but not without code changes to the PJAX code).
