JavaScript scope (Bindings) implementation is broken

      import javax.script.*;

      public class t {
              public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
                      ScriptEngineManager m = new ScriptEngineManager();
                      ScriptEngine e = m.getEngineByName("js");
                      e.eval("var v = 'hello'");
                      Bindings b = e.createBindings();
                      // b is newly created scope. We don't expect 'v' in it...
                      // we expect 'b' to be empty
                      for (String s: b.keySet())
                          System.out.println(s);
              }
      }

      Running the above program prints

      context
      print
      v

      This is not expected. The newly created scope somehow gets the values created in default engine scope of the JavaScript engine. This should not happen.
