    Description


      Thanks for the simplified test case. Even simpler test is as follows:

      function func(obj) {
          var arguments = obj;
          for (var i in arguments) {
          }
          return obj;
      }

      I suspect the issue has to do with handling of 'arguments' shadowing by local var of "magic" arguments. Renaming arguments fixes it. And looks like the loop over arguments is needed as well. I'll file a bug.

      Thanks again,
      -Sundar

I didn't attach it originally, because I thought it would be impossible for you to test: it is normally run from within an embedded environment based on Scripturian/Sincerity. However, I am happy say that i tried anyway and the exact same exception is reproducible even with jjs. Note that "jjs --compile-only" completes without error.
