Every language has it's implementation holes where the spec and
implementations disagree. However, JavaScript as implemented in the
SpiderMonkey engine is in fact a full implementation of ECMAScript
except for a few mostly minor fringe issues (most of them bugs, a few
of them spec bugs, some reality-trumps-specification issues). So are
Futhark, JavaScriptCore and V8 also. JScript is a bit further off, but
it's not extremely far off.

Go on, try to find a pure ECMAScript feature that is not implemented
in mentioned engines. There are a few, but I bet you'll have to try
pretty many things before you find one. And none of them are about a
whole major feature being broken.
