BTW, I think this one is proposed to be fixed for 4.2.0.1

Release Notes:

Details:
[This changeset revises an earlier one sent to review, fixing an ugly workaround. Everything indicated under Tests has been retested with this revision.]

The implementation of catchFunctionExceptions (catcherrors) was blind to static functions,
    'this' cannot be used in static functions.

To tell that a function is static, this changeset peeks up the tree to the parent of the function node, which should be a ASTModifiedDefinition ('moddef'), and checks the static flag there. A shortcut in copying part of the tree without the moddef needed to be fixed, to do that, a 'shallow copy' function was added to the moddef class.

An alternate way of detecting static-ness is to set a 'static' property in the options. I had tried in addressing LPP-5813 (not yet completed), and had some trouble getting it to work. It's not clear which one is cleaner, but the one that works wins for me.

This fix is slightly more encompassing than it needs to be, it also disables any possibility of applying the WITH_THIS directive within a static function. This should always be correct. Changing that to be narrower did not affect the SWF8 problem.


Tests:
(dhtml,swf8,swf9) x (lzpix,weather,smokecheck,hello) x (enable catcherrors, disable catcherrors)
