In the help file of 'Preferences menu' you can read:

"The second thing to note is the "Identify as MSIE 5.0" setting. If 
enabled, Opera will attempt to execute scripts that are of JScript kind. 
Also, the browser will respond to document.all and document.id calls if 
this is what Opera identifies as."

I'm not sure about the meaning of that but I'm quite sure that it explains 
the different behaviour between Opera identified as MSIE 5.0 and the rest.
