beforeShowDay breaks dialog when element is inline

Description

Seems to be related to the time it takes the beforeShowDay to execute. Adding a time out is a workaround. I also changed the beforeShowDay function to just return true and it worked. However, when the function actually does some processing the dp will not render.

The problem appears to be that the callback function cannot access the array of dates to exclude, probably because it is all declared within the $(function() {}) initialiser callback. If the array and callback function are moved outside of this it all works again:

$(function() {
  $("#datepickerthing").datepicker({ 
    beforeShowDay: nationalDays,
    altField: '#actualDate', 
    minDate:'-11M', 
    maxDate: '+2M'
  });
}); 

  var natDays = ["4/22/2009","4/23/2009","4/24/2009","4/25/2009","4/26/2009","5/27/2009","5/28/2009","6/26/2009","6/27/2009","6/28/2009","6/29/2009","6/30/2009"];
  function nationalDays(date) {
    var sDate = (date.getMonth()+1).toString() + "/" + date.getDate().toString() + "/" + date.getFullYear().toString();
    if ($.inArray(sDate, natDays) != -1) return [false,"","Not this day!"];
    else return [true, ""];
  }
