New issue 3898 by [email protected]: sloppy mode 'const' that shadows generator method arg does not throw SyntaxError ('let' does)
https://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=3898

My understanding is that 'let' and 'const' are equivalent in terms of lexical scoping. Yet in sloppy mode, I find they are treated differently here.

$ d8 --es-staging -e 'obj = { *foo(x) { let x = 3; } } '
unnamed:1: SyntaxError: Block-scoped declarations (let, const, function, class) not yet supported outside strict mode
obj = { *foo(x) { let x = 3; } }
                  ^^^
SyntaxError: Block-scoped declarations (let, const, function, class) not yet supported outside strict mode

$ d8 --es-staging -e 'obj = { *foo(x) { const x = 3; } } '

V8 version 4.2.0 (candidate) [console: dumb]
