Ah, yes.  Thanks, I'll add that.
I think there was some thinking that the optional args would
be restricted to null, but I don't know if there's any strong reason
to do that.

I'm going to commit this to trunk, and Tucker can do the technical
review when he has the time for it.

Approved!

I added a few tests to my copy of optarg.lzx to prove to myself that non-null default arguments work properly. You might want to add a similar test:

function f6(x=1,y=2) {
  return x+y;
}

...

check(f6(), 3)
check(f6(2), 4)
check(f6(2,3), 5)
check(f6(2,3,4), 5)

Summary: Support optional and variable arg syntax for SWF8, DHTML

New Features: JS2 syntax for optional arguments and ...rest syntax for variable arguments now supported

Bugs Fixed: LPP-5273

Technical Reviewer: ptw (pending)
QA Reviewer: promanik (pending)
Doc Reviewer: (pending)

Documentation: The syntax allowed is according to the Ecmascript 4 draft standard,
    which is implemented in ActionScript 3.

Release Notes:

Details:
The grammar aspect of this change is backported from the devildog branch. To help future merges, it seemed best to take all grammar changes except for
     the SWF9 'passthrough' work.  Which means we get:
- varargs and optional args, with corresponding changes to ASTIdentifier
       - recognition 'const' keyword (treating the same as 'var')
       - 'catch' allows a type declaration for argument.
- turn on 'visitor' support in parser, could help with future work.

The changes to the formal arguments are made just before a function is translated, and are designed as a single method. This will allow SWF9 to provide a no-op for the method and keep its behavior to pass through the syntax
     to the third party compiler.

The new function is formalArgumentsTransformations and is expected to be self documenting.

A small fix to 'setRuntime' in JavascriptGenerator spotted and changed.

Some unneeded code removed from CodeGenerator (this change already in devildog).

A new file test/optarg.lzx is added. This will supercede test/ optargs.lzx already
     in the devildog branch.

Tests:
     (smokecheck,weather,lzpix) x (swf8,dhtml)
     new test/optarg.lzx (swf8,dhtml)
one-off test: locally, incorporated parts of test/optarg.lzx into LFC to make
       sure syntaxes work within 'class { function foo(args...) }'
       syntax.
