Comment #1 on issue 2727 by erights: changing prototype chain using __proto__ fails
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=2727

This behavior is correct per the ES6 spec of __proto__. Prior to ES6 browsers behaved so differently on the edge cases, that there was no de facto agreement on such matters. In ES6, Object.prototype.__proto__ is an accessor property whose setter changes the [[Prototype]] of its "this". The proto1 object above does not inherit from Object.prototype, so neither do any of the objects that inherit from it. The __proto__ assign is therefore not intercepted by that setter, and so simply creates a normal property that happens to be named "__proto__".

I suggest closing this out as Invalid or WorkingAsIntended.
