As of 1.0a2, fanstatic is adding included js files to the bottom of the head element rather than the top. I've let the project know that the change breaks fa.jquery (see https://bitbucket.org/fanstatic/fanstatic/issue/58/lessjs-lesscss-need-to-be-injected-at-the#comment-4273262 ), but some change on this end may be required.
