says:
when a selector contains the pseudo-class :visited or :link,
the browser ignores that selector while processing the query.
When a group of selectors is provided, only those with the
:visited or :link pseudo-class are ignored.
and gives the example:
// The second selector in this group of selectors will
// be rejected, the first and the third selector will
// continue to apply.
document.querySelectorAll("two, a:link, .myClass");
So it sounds to me like neither :link nor :visited match anything. But someone
who actually has the beta (or can look at the code, of course) should check: the
white-paper is vague enough it could mean other things too, and IE8b1 doesn't
always match the white-papers.
