New issue 1983 by [email protected]: 'source' property of RegExp instance
cannot be ""
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=1983
15.10.6.4 specifies that RegExp.prototype.toString must return '/' + source
+ '/', and also states that the result must be a valid
RegularExpressionLiteral. '//' is not a valid RegularExpressionLiteral
(since it is a single line comment), and hence source cannot ever validly
be "". If the source is empty, return a different Pattern that would match
the same thing.
JSC already fixed the bug in https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79938.
We need a similar fix in V8.
