In development mode `$entry(...)` converts `false` to `Boolean(false)` which can be evaluated to true

[Ali]

Hi

In following example (v2.3.0 development mode) `$entry()` converts returned 
`false` to `Boolean(false)` which can be evaluated to true if used 
immediately.

public class Example {
public boolean test() { return false; }
public native void inject() /*-{
var self = this;
$wnd.test = $entry(function(){ return 
se...@my.gwt.client.Example::test()(); });
}-*/;
}

in js
alert(test() + = + (test() ? true : false));
results in `false=true`.

Is this a bug or I have used it incorrectly?

I hit the same issue as well. See the thread below which describes problem
and a workaround.
