headerCells[i] is undefined (minified: i[n] is undefined)

factorial

Hello, I'm using v1.10.7 with Scroller v1.2.2. I'm getting the error "headerCells[i] is undefined" when reinitializing a datatable. I know this is the code that throws the error in jquery.datatables.js:

for ( i=0 ; i<visibleColumns.length ; i++ ) {
    column = columns[ visibleColumns[i] ];
    
    headerCells[i].style.width = column.sWidthOrig !== null && column.sWidthOrig !== '' ?
        _fnStringToCss( column.sWidthOrig ) :
        '';
}

Shouldn't this be wrapped in a if (headerCells[i]) like so?

for ( i=0 ; i<visibleColumns.length ; i++ ) {
    column = columns[ visibleColumns[i] ];

    if (headerCells[i]) {   
        headerCells[i].style.width = column.sWidthOrig !== null && column.sWidthOrig !== '' ?
            _fnStringToCss( column.sWidthOrig ) :
            '';
    }
}

In my case the final column in visibleColumns is visibleColumns[9], but headerCells[9] is undefined because headerCells.length == 9. I don't know why my headerCells and visibleColumns are out of sync--my codebase is very complex, I'm sorry I can't yet provide a simple reproduction of this error--but using the index of one array to reference another's elements is often problematic as it necessitates the rest of the code to perfectly keep those arrays in sync. So I thought I'd ask here as step 1 just in case this really is a bug.

Thanks for all your attentive help.
