New issue 1497 by [email protected]: Typed Array function constructors should expose `call` and `apply` methods.
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=1497

Typed Array constructors are functions but do not expose call and/or apply methods. These properties are exposed by all callable objects we know about but not here:

typeof Float32Array -> 'function'

Float32Array.call({}) -> BOOM.

I see many use cases for using call and apply on typed arrays, for example being able to subclass Float32Array to create a super fast Vector3 class.

This behavior works just fine in Firefox 4+.
