Comment #4 on issue 375 by [email protected]: Optimize handling of catch variables.
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=375

The scope bug you report is working as intended for compatibility.

The current behavior is indeed compatible with ES3. It is incompatible with ES5, even without strict mode. It is fatally incompatible with ES5-strict, as the most important feature of ES5-
strict is that it is statically scoped.

How do you keep track of features which must be changed when making the transition from ES3 compatibility to ES5 compatibility? If you have a tag for this, I suggest it be applied to this
issue. Regarding ES5, this is a bug, not a feature request.
